LRTV Custom TV - Ethernet-Enabled DWDM - A Multiservice Transport Vision -

Today, a new wavelength circuit can be remotely provisioned across the furthest points in a Carrier Class network, only requiring manual intervention at ingress and egress locations. Cisco's leadership has been influential in enabling the use of Ethernet over DWDM, as carriers look to put Ethernet throughout their networks, even over optical transports.
