Fujitsu today announced that it has developed FUJITSU Network 1FINITY T250, a disaggregation-type (1) optical transmission solution to achieve the IOWN (Innovative Optical and Wireless Network) initiative (2) and started sales on May 14, 2024. The new solution can easily upgrade the reliability of existing optical networks, thereby enabling the creation of new connectivity services for telecommunications carriers and broadcasting companies in new use cases such as telemedicine and remote construction.
1FINITY T250 is a solution that realizes All-Photonics Network (APN) (3), an end-to-end optical network with higher transmission capacity, lower latency, and lower energy consumption. It is equipped with latency adjustment technology that controls delays and enables hitless switching of paths (4) that connect nodes in optical transmission equipment.
Using 1FINITY T250 to configure a backup line, the risks of line failures caused by factors that are difficult to predict (including natural disasters and accidental equipment failures, and other external factors such as relocation of existing equipment due to road construction) can be eliminated while maintaining network services.. It will be possible to switch lines automatically and in a more stable manner without causing a line failure, making it possible to provide APN services more safely and securely.
By providing 1FINITY T250, Fujitsu will support the construction and social implementation of optical networks in fields such as telemedicine, remote robotics, and infrastructures such as power transmission network monitoring systems that require high reliability and low latency, as well as continue to contribute to the realization of highly reliable APNs based on the IOWN initiative, where users can enjoy high-quality services.
