Hitachi Introduces 100Gbps Optical Transport Platform

Hitachi Communication Technologies America introduced its next generation, 100 Gbps optical transport platform. Hitachi said its AMN6400 platform is based on true Packet/Optical architecture, and includes optical layer ROADM/WSS and hybrid packet/OTN switching. The platform supports metro applications such as services aggregation and translation, and long-haul functions such as OTN switching, advanced ULH optics, and MPLS-TP features -- all from a single platform. Initial versions of the AMN6400 platform will be available for evaluation in late 2009, with commercial availability in the second quarter, 2010.
