PROJECT “EAST WEST GATE”
• Project aims to support the deployment of DWDM backbone infrastructure to provide increased connectivity to international traffic exchange points (Frankfurt, Berlin, Prague) and access to cloud services of the largest providers of this type of solutions in the world (Google, Microsoft etc.)
• Construction of DWDM backbone infrastructure based on the ASON architecture with the possibility of securing services.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Netia's project was prepared in response to Call for proposals CEF2 Digital - Backbone connectivity for Digital Global Gateways (CEF-DIG-2022-GATEWAYS).
• Project starting date: March 2024
• Project end date: August 2025
• Project duration: 18 months
TECHNICAL SOLUTION
DWDM based on GMRE nodes allowes to build Intelligent Optical Networks (ION):• Automatic and fast connection sharing.
• High network flexibility and scalability.
• Optimized use of network resources.
• High fault tolerance with minimal resource inventory.
• Interoperability of different technologies: IP, ATM, SONET/SDH and OTH
The GMPLS protocol suite supports the following features:
• Exchange of topology and resource information between node networks.
• Communicating routing decisions to the nodes involved.
• Configuration of appropriate paths.
PSE-6s technology delivers the industry’s first 2.4Tb/s This allows us to connect up to 6 x 400GE or 3 x 800GE services over a single linecard.
