Infinera pioneered “Digital Optical Networking”, a new approach to optical telecommunications enabled by photonic integration.Digital Optical Networking combines dense wave division multiplexing (DWDM) scalability, digital bandwidth management and protection, and GMPLS-based networking intelligence. Service providers who use Infinera systems benefit from simpler planning, engineering, and operations; faster and easier scalability; and much more network flexibility than is possible using conventional optical systems. 

The Infinera DTN optical platform, based on Infinera’s own breakthrough photonic integrated circuits (PICs), is today delivering SDH/SONET, Ethernet, and wavelength transport services in long-haul, regional, and metro core networks around the world.
