Song Networks, a major Pan-Nordic telecom operator, completed a fist round of interoperability testing of 10 Gbps WAN PHY XENPAK modules from Optillion.
For the field trial, the Optillion TOP 4010 WAN PHY transceiver along with Nortel's Optera LH OC-192 DWDM transmission equipment and Extreme Network's Black Diamond 6800 10 Gbps Ethernet switch were used. One 10 GbE traffic pipe was carried between two points extending a distance of more than 600 km. For the Ethernet data rate, it was adapted to 9.95 Gbps to match the OC-192 requirement and then transparently SONET/SDH framed by the Optillion XENPAK module. http://www.optillion.com
