The solution is designed to ensure unified bearing of various complicated network and services. With advanced functionality and powerful performance, the release empowers operators to undertake edge layer network construction.
With a height of only 6U, the ZXMP M721 CX66 features the highest 840G crossing capacity in the industry. The solution supports 2Mbit/s to 100Gbit/s any rate access, and can implement metro area core and backbone network E2E unified crossing scheduling. It also provides full support for software defined networking (SDN).
Mr. Wei Xiaoqiang, Director of Bearer Network Planning and System Department, ZTE said: "The ZXMP M721 CX66 is a compact packet OTN product with the highest integrity and capacity in the industry. It perfectly satisfies operators' urgent bearing demands, effectively reduces network layer complexity, and ensures the perfect unified bearing of edge layer OTN."
