Telia Carrier is the first network operator to demonstrate 400G coherent connections between Cisco's NCS 5700 and Cisco 8000 platforms over a third-party open line system. Telia Carrier announced that it is preparing to converge their IP and optical networking layers to simplify their networks. Using Acacia's 400G coherent modules that are plugged directly into Cisco routers, this architecture will enable Telia Carrier to address increasing bandwidth demand while significantly reducing both capital and operational expenditures. Historically, scaling and operating a multilayer architecture has always been a challenge. Thanks to game-changing innovations that span across silicon, optics, and routing systems, complex layers can finally converge into a simpler and more scalable architecture - Routed Optical Networking.
