About Optical Networks
The AARNet Optical Network provides end users access to high
capacity bandwidth and affordable prices. Services are delivered as point to
point Gigabit Ethernet with a no rate limiting.
This enables AARNet to deliver a product that for all
intensive purposes looks like a long fiber patch cord to your network.
At the heart of the network is a DWDM solution provided by
Cisco Systems. The ONS 15454 MSTT provides the underlying optical transmission
including amplification and multiplexing.
