OTN for High-Speed Transport & DCI Networks
Email us HERE to register your interest for this course in house (online or in-person). COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course provides a practical and in-depth introduction to Optical Transport Network (OTN) technology as used in today’s high-speed transport, metro, backbone and data centre interconnect (DCI) networks. Participants will learn how high-capacity services (100G and 400G) are mapped, groomed, monitored and transported using OTN standards (ITU-T G.709 and G.872), and how OTN works together with modern DWDM and coherent optical networks. The course focuses on real-world transport and DCI use cases, including service grooming, performance monitoring, protection, multi-vendor interoperability and the relationship between OTN and modern routed optical (ZR/ZR+) architectures. It is a vendor-neutral, market-driven course designed for engineers working in telco, metro, backbone and data centre environments. Download course outline Here -
