Operators are looking for POS-like operations, administration, and maintenance (OAM) functions at Ethernet price points with technologies such as OTN G.709 encapsulation. Some operators have traditional transponder systems that can operate only in OC-768 and OTU-3 modes. In addition, bandwidth growth is leading all markets, including data center operators, to move to 40 Gigabit Ethernet in the aggregation layer to handle growth in the data center. The Cisco CRS 4-Port 40GE LAN/OTN Interface Module addresses both these needs. The 4-port 40GE module in OTN mode with multirate se
