Reaping the Benefits of Disaggregated Optical Networks

whitePaper | June 21, 2021

The disaggregation of optical networks will bring numerous benefits to service providers including enabling best-in-class innovation for each network element or sub-system; freedom from vendor lock-in enabling solution flexibility and price competition; and staggered network evolution. For example, a faster cycle for transmission subsystems with a longer life for optical line systems. Most service providers are pursuing one of two approaches to building disaggregated optical networks. The Partially Disaggregated and the Fully Disaggregated approach. This paper explains the benefits of both and how service providers can reap the rewards of disaggregated networks regardless of which approach they choose.
