Oif To Tackle 100g Long-haul Dwdm

摘要

According to Ciena's Joe Berthold, former president of the OIF, the project will aim to speed implementation of the 100G specifications that the IEEE and ITU-T are expected to standardize. As Berthold put it, IEEE will set a 100-Gigabit Ethernet standard, ITU-T will create a way to frame it and issue an OTU-4 specification within its current Optical Transport Network framework, and the OIF project will figure out what else the industry needs to provide to implement 100G transmission over long-haul DWDM networks.
