OEMs will also require a device like Microsemi\u2019s new DIGI-G5 to leverage DIGI field-hardened OTN software stack and deliver their leading systems with faster time to market.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChina Mobile operates one of the world\u2019s largest OTN switched networks,\u201d said Li Han, deputy director of the Network Technology Research Institute, China Mobile Communications Co Ltd. \u201cTo meet bandwidth needs as we enter the 5G and cloud era, our metro network must scale by leveraging new higher speed OTN rates while reducing both cost and power per bit. Microsemi\u2019s DIGI-G5 platform will enable our suppliers to build higher capacity scalable systems to support our long-term network expansion needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>DIGI-G5 enables OTN 3.0, beyond 100G era<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The industry continues to invest in evolving OTN to meet the needs of a hyperconnected world powered by cloud workloads.<\/p>\n<p>* OTN 1.0 was based on 10G point-to-point wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) connectivity.<\/p>\n<p>* OTN 2.0 is today\u2019s mainstream 100G optical connections built on OTN switching.<\/p>\n<p>* OTN 3.0 enables new 25GE, 50GE, 200GE, 400GE and FlexE) interfaces to be transported over new 400G OTN, OTUCn, and FlexO switched connections.<\/p>\n<p>DIGI-G5 provides a quantum leap in bandwidth capacity, delivers the breadth of new OTN 3.0 interfaces and integrates Microsemi\u2019s second generation CrypOTN security engine to enable flexible encrypted optical connections.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur DIGI OTN processor portfolio has been instrumental in transforming service provider networks to mass deploy 100G OTN switched networks,\u201d said Babak Samimi, vice president and business unit manager for <span

architectures at terabit scalability by delivering three times the port density while lowering power consumption by 50 percent per port.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Field-hardened OTN software stack accelerates time to market<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Microsemi&#8217;s field-proven and carrier-qualified DIGI OTN Switching Software Development Kit (SDK) provides an application-driven hardware abstraction layer (HAL) that simplifies data path setup to a handful of application program interface (API) calls, accelerating development cycles of OEMs.<\/p>\n<p>DIGI-G5&#8217;s on-board ARM processor enables Tbps application performance by offloading the host central processing unit (CPU) from complex and time-critical operations such as data path provisioning, protection switching and overhead management.<\/p>\n<p>With DIGI-G5, OEMs can scale their software performance as demanded by a software-defined networking (SDN) controlled network architecture.<\/p>\n<span class=\"highlight

to approach $14 billion in 2021, with 100G joined by 400G representing the vast majority of deployed capacity.<\/p>\n<p>Advanced packet-OTN switching equipment represents one of the fastest growing segments of the optical market and is at the core of the large metro WDM deployments pursued by carriers such as Verizon, China Mobile and Telefonica.<\/p>\n<p>Cignal AI expects revenue for this segment of the optical market to grow at a 20% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) through 2021.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile 100G is prevalent in both metro and long-haul networks today, next-generation packet optical transport must scale beyond 100G and include features that eliminate excess margin and quickly deliver bandwidth when and where it is needed,\u201d said Andrew Schmitt, lead analyst with Cignal AI. \u201cWith the DIGI-G5, <span class=\"highlight highlight-blue\"><a href=\"https:\/\/engineernewsnetwork.com\/blog\/microsemi-launches-mi-v-ecosystem\/\" target=\"_blank\"
