HIGH DENSITY DESIGN
SOLUTION BRIEF
No matter how sophisticated networks become, deployment in
real network scenarios is often ultimately limited by the availability
of space and power.
Today’s packet-optical systems provide a broad range of Layer 1 and
Layer 2 service capabilities, which can consolidate optical transport
and Ethernet switching into a single platform.
But space and power requirements in these packet-optical systems
are becoming increasingly challenging as more advanced functionality
is needed while costs are squeezed harder in operators’ networks.
Infinera has introduced industry-leading high-density capabilities with
a new Hex family of plug-in units to the XTM Series that provide 50

Taming Network Expansion Economics with
High Density and Low Power Design.
percent higher density than the previous Quad versions. This family
of cards supports up to 96 transponders in a single chassis and power
consumption as low as 5 watts (W) per transponder.
The Infinera XTM Series has always been at the forefront of metro
networking, with a particular focus on economics in all network
locations from compact access nodes to large metro-core nodes.
Our heritage includes some of the most compact and lowest-power
solutions in the industry. This legacy is important to Infinera, and
the company has maintained this edge with some of the densest
solutions in the industry today, offering power savings of up to 75
percent compared to some competitors’ solutions.

Why Are High Density Design and Low Power Design Important to Network Operators?
All network operators face challenges when it comes to space and
power, but the specifics vary from operator to operator. To all, power
consumption is important as this is a major contributor to ongoing
operational expenditure, especially when you consider that any
savings are compounded when in-building air conditioning is taken
into consideration.
Any savings in equipment power consumption can typically
be increased by 30 to 50 percent when lower air conditioning
requirements are taken into account, as lower power systems generate
less heat and therefore require less cooling.
All operators also have views on the relative importance of space to
their operations. They all need to ensure that they get the maximum
possible from every inch of space, but to those who use colocation
space or those reaching the limits of existing available capacity, this
is of critical importance. This can occur in data centers, central offices
and access/customer premise locations.
A further aspect of the space/power equation is the need to ensure
that as solutions become denser, power consumption is controlled so
that it doesn’t lead to situations in which any possible increased power
consumption requirements don’t force operators into expensive
power upgrade cycles.
The Infinera Heritage in Metro-focused Networks
The metro-focused heritage of Infinera has led to a number of key
architectural decisions that enable operators to maximize available
space and power within networks.
First, the Infinera XTM Series is available in a range of chassis sizes, all
of which support common families of plug-in units, enabling operators
to right-size nodes to meet local traffic requirements.
Second, each plug-in unit is designed with low power design require-
ments from the start. This is a claim
made by most system vendors, but
low-power performance varies consid-
erably across the industry, and the In-
finera XTM Series-based solutions can
save as much as 75 percent of the power
required by some competitors for
comparable configurations.
This is achieved through the use of a simpler chassis/system design
that does not use a complex backplane for all slots regardless of
actual traffic demands, and through a design process for plug-in
units that has low power consumption as a key requirement right
from the start.
Infinera is proud of the company’s high density design and low power
design achievements and encourages customers and prospects to
carefully compare offerings from vendors to ensure they get the best
performance in these areas within their networks.
Recent Innovations that Enhance the Infinera Leading Density Capabilities
Advances in optical and component technology have allowed Infinera
to make two significant steps in further enhancing higher density and
lowering power consumption in optical networking.
First, Infinera has developed a range of Hex 10 Gb/s transponders
as part of the XTM Series that contain six independent transponder
functions within a single plug-in unit. Using small form-factor
pluggable (SFP) + optics, compact design and highly efficient thermal
cooling, this range of units provides industry-leading density and
low power consumption.
In addition, Infinera launched the industry’s first all-pluggable 100G
metro solution supporting coherent optics. Using the new pluggable
optics for 100 Gb/s services, this solution also provides industry-
leading density and low power consumption.

The Hex 10 Gb/s Family
Comprising two plug-in units, the 10 Gb/s Hex family provides a broad range of capabilities and covers a wide range of services. The range comprises a Hex 10 Gb/s transparent transponder that supports ultra-low latency for all services from STM-4/OC-12 to FC-16, as well as one transponders supporting 10 Gb/s services such as Fibre Channel, synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH)/synchronous optical network (SONET), optical transport network (OTN) and Ethernet using OTN framing.
These single-width plug-in units enable up to 16 units to be installed in a TM-3000 chassis, allowing up to 96 independent 10 Gb/s transponder functions within 11 rack units (RU). That’s 960 Gb/s of total capacity within the chassis and a density of over 87 Gb/s per RU which is industry leading for 10 Gb/s services.
With a power draw of as low as 30 W for a Hex 10 Gb/s transparent transponder fully equipped with all pluggable optics, this also gives power consumption of as low as 5 W per fully equipped 10 Gb/s transponder, which is also industry-leading.
One example of the Hex transponders, featuring six transponder functions in a single slot unit.

Real-world Examples
Let’s now look at some real-world scenarios in which these new
solutions can be deployed, all characterized by high density and
low-power capabilities:
• 40-channel 10 Gb/s solution in one single-chassis configuration
• 80-channel 10 Gb/s solution in a two-chassis configuration
• Ultra-dense 80-channel 10 Gb/s solution in one single-chassis
configuration
• Reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (ROADM) and packet-
optical transport switch (EMXP) in a convergence example of
80-channel 10 Gb/s ring configuration
• 80-channel 100 Gb/s – 8 terabits – example in a four-rack configuration
HIGH DENSITY DESIGN
40-channel 10 Gb/s – Single-chassis Solution
Using only seven Hex transponders to support the 40 10 Gb/s services, the TM-3000 still has plenty of room to support all other necessary units for sophisticated point-to-point applications.
There is space for a 40-channel filter, two amplifiers, an optical channel monitor, an optical supervisory unit and even optical interleavers to enable a future hitless upgrade to higher channel counts. There are also spare slots for flexibility should plans change.
• Complete 40x10 Gb/s network elements in 11 RU
• Less than 300 W power consumption in card cage*
• Seven transponders (6x10 Gb/s in each)
• Prepared for hitless upgrade beyond 40 channels
Intermediate amplifier sites can be supported with the TM-301 (3 RU) chassis containing amplifiers and all other necessary components.
If the intermediate site has data communications network (DCN) access and the optical supervisory channels are not needed, then the intermediate amplifier site can be supported with a highly compact TM-102 (1 RU) chassis, which then only draws 27 W in the card cage.
80-channel 10 Gb/s – Two-chassis Solution
As the 40 x 10 Gb/s configuration is pre-equipped with optical interleaver units to enable a hitless upgrade to higher capacity, it is simple to extend this configuration to 80 channels.
A second TM-3000 chassis is required to support the additional transponders and the second 40-channel filter taking the space requirement to 22 RU.
• Complete 80x10 Gb/s network elements in 22 RU
• ~500 W power consumption for two card cages*
• 14 transponders (6x10 Gb/s in each)
• Free slots for upgrade to 100 Gb/s traffic units
Again, this configuration has all necessary components for sophisticated point-to-point networks and has plenty of space to accommodate changes in plans, such as upgrades to 100 Gb/s.
*Card cage figures are used here as these plug-in units can be deployed in any existing XTM Series chassis. These may have various power supply, controller unit and cooling fan options. The total power consumption of the chassis will therefore be slightly higher than these card cage figures that are common to all of the various chassis options.

Packet-optical Convergence
Infinera is a leader in the move to packet-optical convergence in metro
networks via the XTM Series Native Packet Optical 2.0 architecture.
From a density and power perspective, this trend in general should
be positive for all vendors as two types of equipment are being
merged into a single platform that should save space and power.
However, the XTM Series’ low power design and high density design
emphasis has pushed this further with the EXMP family of very
compact Layer 2 packet-optical transport switches, which can provide
up to 220 Gb/s of Ethernet switching with embedded transponder
functions into a double-slot unit.
The EMXP also provides very low power consumption when compared
to an architecture in which Layer 1 and Layer 2 functions are separated
in different units as well as when compared to competitive solutions.
HIGH DENSITY DESIGN
Ultra-dense 80-channel 10 Gb/s – Single-chassis Solution
In simpler point-to-point networks, such as within data center interconnect networks, some of the functionality included above is not needed and it is possible to optimize the space usage even further.
These networks may not require amplifiers if the distance is less than 80 kilometers (km). If there are no intermediate amplifier sites, then the optical supervisory units aren’t required and neither is the optical channel monitor as per-wavelength power balancing isn’t required.
This leaves a simple configuration with just 14 Hex transponders, two optical filters and two optical interleavers to support all 80 channels. If we utilize the 40-channel filters from the XTG Series range, then it is possible to fit all remaining components within a single TM-3000 chassis as shown below.
• Complete 800 Gb/s (80x10 Gb/s) network elements in 13 RU (11 + 1 + 1)
• ~450 W power consumption in card cage*
• Active transponders in a TM-3000/II chassis
• 40-channel mux/demux units (MDUs) using rack-mounted XTG Series filters
• Ideal for data center interconnects
The XTG Series filters are fully managed by the Infinera Enlighten® multi-layer management suite, so there is no loss of functionality with the move to these filters.
Convergence Example – ROADM and EMXP 80-channel 10 Gb/s Ring Configuration
As an example of packet-optical convergence, the configuration below combines the EMXP 120 with 12 10 Gb/s ports and the XTM Series ROADM-based flexible optical networking architecture to create a highly flexible ring node.
The node supports all necessary functions, such as optical channel monitoring and optical supervisor channels along with colorless and directionless ROADM-based optical switching and EMXP-based Ethernet switching.
• Colorless, directionless, two-dimensional ROADM configuration in a single 11 RU chassis
• Less than 370 W power consumption in card cage*
• 160 Gb/s (16x10 GbE-LAN) add/drop using EMXP120/IIE

Keeping Fuse Rates Low
There are two aspects of power consumption that are very important
to network operators.
The first is the power consumption of any specific configuration,
such as those discussed in this solution brief.
The second is one that is often overlooked by many when making
power consumption comparisons: the fuse rating that a chassis
requires on Day 1, regardless of the installed or planned plug-in units.
Here the XTM Series can also offer network operators significant
advantages and savings. As optical systems become more complex
with more functionality and higher capacity, there is a trend to higher
power consumption within the chassis even if the power per bit
transmitted is lower than previous generations of technology. This
can lead to very high fuse ratings on the chassis on Day 1, regardless
of intended configuration, and high-rating fused supplies can be
scarce, costly or both.
As the XTM Series offers a range of chassis sizes, operators can right-
size a node for the intended use both in terms of space and fuse rating.
Furthermore, these chassis options all draw lower total power than
competing solutions and therefore use lower-rated fused supplies.
Fiber Management
Many network operators have fiber handling procedures that need
to be considered when planning how to handle the large volume of
fibers used in dense 10 Gb/s configurations. This means that in some
scenarios, additional fiber management components are required.
However, detailed analysis with network operators has shown that it
is still possible to manage such situations. For example, it is possible
to fit two of the highly dense single-chassis 80-channel 10 Gb/s
configurations within a standard rack once the necessary fiber trays
for slack fiber management and optical distribution frames have
been included.
Summary
High density design and low power design have been core to the
development of the XTM Series right from the start, and it has a
long track record in providing industry-leading solutions in terms of
both density and power consumption.
Now that packet-optical systems are
becoming more complex in terms
of functionality and traffic levels are
jumping higher and higher, these high-
density and low-power characteristics
of packet-optical solutions are becom-
ing ever more important.
Every rack unit of space saved saves
money and/or delays the next upgrade
to more space. Every watt of power
saved saves money, lowers air condi-
tioning requirements and avoids or delays expensive power upgrades,
which all have a positive impact on the environment.
HIGH DENSITY DESIGN
“ For all my years of deploying networks, I know that real deployments ultimately come down to two questions – available space and power.”
