Optical Transport Network


Coriant’s hiT 7100 optical switch offers powerful management tools, a multi-layer control plane, and a modest ROADM size and footprint, but, a modest switching capacity threatens its ability to excel as a terabit optical core switch.

hiT 7100 benefits:
  • Achieve more efficient use of network resources with integrated OTN and MPLS-TP switching
  • Realize significant capital and operational savings by optimizing the use of network transport layers
  • Achieve up to 40% less wavelength usage to reduce the total number of costly transponders
  • Reduce router traffic to save up to 80% CAPEX (capital expenditure) and up to 60% OPEX (operational expenditure)
