As data center and end-user applications continue to proliferate, bandwidth demand continues to multiply, resulting in significant changes to the patterns, dynamics, and scale of traffic within metro networks. The footprint and power efficiency of the 5170 allows the addition of 10GbE services without growing the operator’s footprint.Hardware-assisted packet OAM scaled to deliver 100GbE services with guaranteed SLA differentiationAs data center and end-user applications continue to proliferate, bandwidth demand continues to multiply, resulting in significant changes to the patterns, dynamics, and scale of traffic within metro networks.

The 5170 implements Ciena’s unique ZTP capabilities, allowing network operators to rapidly deploy new packet-based services in a completely automated manner. It operates using Ethernet, MPLS-TE, or MPLS-TP, with future support of segment routing for complete control over forwarding paths.This ongoing, global bandwidth demand growth in metro networks has focused attention on the aggregation part of the infrastructure for network transformation initiatives. By incorporating Ciena’s WaveLogic 3 Extreme coherent processors, Waveserver enables unparalleled capacity and density—400 Gb/s of line capacity plus 400 Gb/s of client Ethernet ports—in a compact, 1RU form-factor. Ciena’s 5170 Service Aggregation Switch addresses the increasing need for high-bandwidth services at the edge of the network. The 5171 implements Ciena’s unique ZTP capabilities, allowing network operators to rapidly deploy new packet-based services in a completely safe and secure automated manner. With no human intervention required, manual provisioning errors are eliminated, and costly truck rolls can be avoided. In many cases, service velocity is the determining factor in winning new service sales. With no human intervention required, manual provisioning errors are eliminated, and costly truck rolls can be avoided. With no human intervention required, manual provisioning errors are eliminated, and costly truck rolls can be avoided. The 5160 is based on Ciena’s field-proven packet networking technology, with hundreds of thousands of systems deployed by operators worldwide. Subscribe Ask the community.
