3 MinimalCosts

Single failure recovery no longer sufficient

Deterministic behavior, within 50 milliseconds

1 Multi-failure backups


Shared bandwidth, Transport layer

Recovery mechanisms for networks

More Reliable

Sub 50ms recovery on failure

Industry’s first hardware-accelerated fast shared mesh protection

DTN-X

Deterministic Performance: Sub 50ms failure recovery via dedicated hardware

Lower Capital Costs & Operations: Shared backups via cost-effective transport layer

Enhanced Availability: Automatic multi-failure network-wide backup via network intelligence

Purpose Built Hardware Protectsfor 8 Tb/s/fiber & 1000’s services


All existing (and future) deployments are ready day 1
