NAPERVILLE, Ill. -- Coriant, a global supplier of SDN-enabled end-to-end transport networking solutions, today introduced the Coriant 7100 Pico Packet Optical Transport Platform, a compact and flexible solution optimized for service enablement at the edge of metro networks. The 7100 Pico extends the reach of the industry-leading Coriant 7100 product family and enables a broad range of edge services and applications, including Data Center Interconnect (DCI), flexible business services, mobile backhaul, and SONET/SDH network migration.

The 7100 Pico was designed using the same layer-agnostic switching philosophy used across Coriant’s end-to-end product portfolio. The 7100 Pico’s high-density and low-power 2-rack-unit (2RU) design includes an innovative distributed processing architecture that distributes system processing across service modules, significantly reducing upfront costs and improving system reliability.
