Huawei has launched synergy planning system for backbone networks, which is backed by a multi-layer network planning tool iManager MDS6600 that enables synergy between the IP and transport layers of the backbone network.
The company claims that the new suite makes enhanced network resource utilisation possible due to management of bandwidth resources, which are assigned based on traffic in a unified manner, thus achieving synergistic traffic processing across the IP and transport layers.
The interaction between the IP layer and transport layer eliminates repetitive protection when an issue occurs, reduces wasted resources and offers efficient protection and enhanced network reliability. In addition, the synergy suite also provides high capacity and an ultra-broadband backbone network for operators, the company said.
Christian Chua, president of the converged backbone solution in network product line at Huawei, said: Huawei’ s innovative synergy planning solution is the first in the world to offer inter-layer traffic synergy, protection synergy, and management synergy, helping operators to increase network efficiency, mitigate pressures on the backbone network and optimize network reliability, while slashing OM costs.”
