Cisco continues to be a leading optical transport vendor driving the subsea evolution. Learn how our solution is helping our customers keep up with current and future demands with more capacity, longer distance and lower cost per bit.

The subsea market is booming, and Cisco continues to be a leading optical transport vendor driving this evolution.

Cisco is moving quickly to support customers like CENIC to maximize their network by enabling more bandwidth and flexibility that multi-haul brings.

The value of the Cisco NCS 1004 lies in its multi-haul transport capabilities and ability to adapt to any reach use case while providing the highest spectral efficiency. Visit Cisco at OFC, booth 5829.

Cisco partnered with Verizon to demonstrate the benefits of the granular control of our NCS 1004 in a real-world environment.

Submarine cables form the backbone of the Internet. In a live field trial, the Cisco NCS 1004 drove a single wavelength of 300G over a 10,000km sub-sea link. The spectral efficiency achieved was 43 percent better than any other option available in the industry today.

Cisco continues to be on the leading edge, driving optical industry innovation for our customers. Today, I’m pleased to announce that we have achieved the ranking of Optical Network Market Leader in the 2018 IHS Market Technology Vendor Scorecard.

Solutions such as MPLS and circuit emulation are helping carriers like Verizon push the technology envelope and future proof networks.

Data demands are on the rise, and service providers are looking for ways to maximize their networks. By using a new, flexible control plane, the software-driven network lets providers adjust their bandwidth automatically and take a proactive approach to the typical tradeoffs that exist between capacity and distance in the optical network.
