HPE Complete - Smartoptics Intelligent xWDM solutions

Fibre Channel is the traffic protocol of choice for SANs (storage area networking). The ability to synchronously replicate 16/8G FC ISLs (inter switch links) between data centers is key to the successful implementation of a remote back or disaster recovery policy.

Smartoptics has been at the forefront of SAN Fibre Channel connectivity for data centers and were first to market with 4G embedded CWDM solutions in 2007. Smartoptics has continued to provide simple low cost ISL connectivity between geographically separated sites for 16G channel traffic. With just a few simple building blocks: through multiplexers - passive or managed transponders and 16G DWDM ER transceivers all connectivity types are supported.

Smartoptics provides the transmission link between the data centers. i.e. it provides the xWDM platform to enable all traffic to be connected between multiple sites over a single dark fiber network. At hugely reduced capex and opex compared to traditional DWDM platforms. No matter if it is a simple point to point connection or a multisite campus network. Also no matter if it is SAN and or WAN - any protocol in any combination. This is an extremely versatile solution to connect sites together. As long as there is a fiber network there is an opportunity for this solution.

Smartoptics are simple to set up low cost to purchase and run yet high capacity. Smartopticssolutions offer one of the lowest latency solutions on the market and coupled with the unique Brocade approvals means that any customer owning FC equipment and needing to replicate between sites can make use of the Smartoptics products.

Smartoptics has solutions for all types of 16/10/8G connectivity whether it is based on embedded or transponder based DWDM networking. The unique M-Series intelligent distance extending multiplexer extends the usable range of embedded networking and maintains the benefits of operating at the pure physical layer. Advantages which also benefit the switch usage by not having to be run in R_Ready mode. Regardless of the challenges faced in the network Smartoptics has a suitable solution.

Smartoptics is available on HPE Catalog via HPE Complete program.
