IP and optical convergence increases more efficient and sustainable network of service providers to support bandwidth and application widths such as AI, 4K/8K video and virtual reality application. This convergence dramatically simplifies the architecture of middle and last miles, reduces CAPEX and OPEX and makes it easier and easier to introduce new services.
The middle and the last mile
Support for workloads, such as AI and a wide -band connection with massive requirements for bandwidth and service quality (QoS), leads to fundamental changes in the service provider. Cisco has recently announced Cisco Agile Services Networking, simplified network architecture prepared for A, which equips services providers to monetize the delivery of good, customizable services and durable network experiences.
Convergeration of IP routing and optical solutions in the last mile and Middle Mile is part of this effort to create a smooth, simplified, cost-effective end-to-end architecture that integrated different technologies for optimal performance.
Transponders DWDM pluggable
Cisco directed optical networks has been deployed more than 300 Cisco customers, replacing a separate thick de-devivision multiplexing (DWDM) with coherent pluggable Optics deployed on IP ports for metro and data center). Cisco, which converges layer 2 and layer 3 technologies to one platform, directed by optical network provides more cost -effective high -speed connections between nodes, which is decisive for scaling for distributed AI models and support of inference workflows.
In addition, the automation of the driven AI enables predictive analysis and optimization of resources, ensuring that the network performance remains efficient in applying for heavy workload. This design is ideal for supporting applications such as AI, broadband and extensive machine learning pipes.
Converged access with passive optical network Cisco Route
The introduction of CISCO routed passive optical networks (PON) allows service providers to be replaced by a specialized chassis of the optical line (OLT) of optical transcements deployed in access routers (Figure 1), using a 10-Gigabit symmetrical ponos (XGS-Pon) and technology. XGS-PON-PON-PON-PON-PON-PON-PON-PON-PON-PON-PON-PON-PON-OFFIC Official Offic. Symmetrical speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second (GBPS).
As shown in Figure 1, Cisco directed the optical network and the road PON, part of the architecture of the agile network network, to bring localized processing and other services closer to the edge. This architecture is further strengthened by the automation and insurance of AI-Power, which ensures optimum operation control, failure detection and dynamic resource contribution.
For workload AI, this architecture is particularly Advantageo because of its distributed abilities at the level of metro and basic level. It also allows simple, intelligent and durable connection between data centers. The AI data centers in the metro area can process tasks sensitive to latency by processing data locally before handover to basic sources for multiple intensive operations.
With this solution, broadband providers can strengthen the durability of their infrastructure and provide fast and high quality services across the top. Cisco has directed the optical network and directed PON solutions support powerful features such as segment routing, Sub-50MS fast accuracy in any topology, multipotocol switching (MPLS), and high-end automation to supply durable, converged software access network.
This convergence of multiple services in one united Network Infrastructure Layer 3 allows providers to provide different services – including residential, business and wireless – in the same network. It simplifies network management, reduces the complexity of holding multiple networks, and allows more efficient use of resources.
Savings and sustainability
By complaining multiple services into one network, providers can achieve significant cost savings. The reduced need for separate infrastructures for different services reduces CAPEX. Simplified management and maintenance of the network can lead to lower Opex. Moreover, the efficiency and scabibility of Roued Pon means that providers can expand their services more efficient.
Without the need for a separate OLT chassis for roads, energy consumption, space and cooling are reduced – a dramatic increase in sustainability goals.
According to CISCO estimates, Cisco may reduce the optical network of network CAPEX, energy consumer, trace infrastructure and work for combined TCO for 56% in five years. This included 50% savings for CAPEX, 67% for OPEX and 78% for energy consumption.
Change of industry
Cisco directed optical networks and road PFs are converged offers that significantly simplify network management, add new features and speeds of broadband, reduce costs and support sustainability initiatives. The theme “Less is More” is suitable and is set to point the network industry towards a more durable and efficient future, as well as the formation of AI and other applications drastically increases in the network.
In today’s hyperconnet world, the expansion and management of profitable, high -performance networks for access and transport will require innovative architectural approaches. IP and optical convergence is a great example. It provides service providers must simplify operations, increase flexibility, reduce costs and provide differentiated services.
