DCI BOX, lighting up the DCI transmission network

 Data Center Inter-connect (DCI) technology refers to a technology that builds a DCI data center interconnection network to connect different data centers to each other in order to allow data centers to operate better together. With the rapid development of high-frequency transactions, 4K/8K high-definition video live broadcast, 5G and cloud services, DCI transmission networks are required to have low latency, large bandwidth, large-granularity services, and minimalist operation and maintenance. Data center interconnection, telecommunications or radio and television metropolitan wavelength division/backbone wavelength division construction, and industry network construction of dedicated lines and private networks are typical usage scenarios for coherent DCI transmission. The following requirements are put forward for DCI interconnection equipment:

Small size: compact 1U/2U

Low power consumption: ❤0W/100G

Minimalist maintenance: supports WEB/CLI/SNMP

Low latency, large bandwidth: 100GE and above service access

The WDM-OTN interconnection equipment used in traditional DCI is huge (generally 12U), while the compact DCI BOX only occupies a 1U/2U rack size and can easily meet the demand, so it is increasingly favored by enterprises and operators.

To this end, HTF has launched the latest DCI BOX2.0 series of related subsystem products, which are 2U 6.4T DCI BOX, with a maximum capacity of 6.4T in a single chassis. It is a business platform customized for data center interconnection (DCI) and metropolitan area network wavelength division applications. It realizes the sharing of optical layer equipment and electrical layer equipment or independent chassis, saving chassis and providing convenience for capacity expansion.

HTF 2U 6.4T DCI BOX

HTF DCI BOX Highlights

Ultra-large bandwidth granularity: a single wave supports 400G rate, adaptable to various scenarios in metropolitan areas and medium and long distances

Full-service access capability: DC full-service support (network, service, storage interface)

Modular design: all components are modular, deployed on demand, and expanded on demand

Ultra-large access capacity: 6.4T single chassis, 400G*80 waves 32T system capacity

Open system architecture: decoupled network architecture, adaptable to Yifeiyang and third-party optical layer solutions

Optoelectronic integrated plug-in box: the optical layer and the electrical layer are shared, the optoelectronic integrated chassis has flexible plug-in boards

Extremely simple maintenance: WEB/SNMP/CLI, supporting flexible and convenient device management methods

Fully supports ROADM: supports third generation ROADM, FLEX GRID, supports ROADM and flexible grid below 9 dimensions

The HTF DCI BOX system adopts a front and rear heat dissipation design and is equipped with multiple sets of high-speed fans to ensure excellent heat dissipation performance; the optical layer supports EDFA boards, WSS boards, OP boards, etc.; the electrical layer supports 100G/200G/400G coherent boards. ; Management supports SNMP/Netconf protocol, CLI/Web/BS management, dual master backup, and OSC communication. Its powerful transmission capabilities and management capabilities are very suitable for use in data centers and metropolitan area networks.

Supports business configuration, device status query, alarm record and query, online program upgrade, board reset and other functions.

Adopting client software management, it supports centralized management of no more than 500 network elements, network element topology generation, business configuration, equipment status query, alarm record and query, alarm email push and other functions. The HTF DCI BOX2.0 system can meet not only point-to-point networking, but also more complex long-chain, ring, and composite networking. As the technology of optical modules/optical chips continues to develop, the reduction in transmission costs and the improvement of transmission technology will increase the demand for DCI technology in the future.
