DESCRIPTION

Susmita Adhikari – has been with Cube Optics AG since May 2013 serving as product placement manager. In her role she engages with customers and industry colleagues to discover new market opportunities and supports the sales force with technical content and design activities to optimize product placement across all touch points. She also represents CUBO at organizations like Ethernet Alliance. From 2009 to 2012 she worked as a researcher at Nokia Siemens Networks (now Coriant) and specialized in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) for optical communication gaining expertise in long haul optical communication namely coherent transmission, future looking optical components, digital signal processing and specifically modulation formats and DSP-based nonlinear compensation techniques. She also directly supervised students and collaborated with different universities to evaluate different multi-level modulation formats for next generation 100GbE transmission systems.

Today’s 100G migration dilemma

Is there a right solution?

When does it make sense to migrate- today / near(er) term

future?

Andrew Schmitt from Infonetics, October 2013:

“It is only used (today) when service providers must

use it, which means 1 of 2 situations:

insufficient fiber (and WDM) capacity to deploy more

10G traffic

a 100G private line service that needs to be

delivered — a 100G router port that must be sent

across the metro” 4

100G price / bps is still (and will be for some time) higher than at 1G/10G

E.g. 100GBase-LR4 roughly 100x 10GBase-LR pricing (“only” ca. 40x at

DWDM)

Higher complexity of 100G transport adds further cost (e.g. DCUs etc)

100Gbps is still not making sense for all Metro connections but

has become a valid solution for fiber constraint areas and native

100G port transport

100Gbps Direct Detect has become

a simple and low(er) cost solution.

Coherent Pluggables may become a good alternative

to Direct Detect, but price and complexity remains major issue
