Calient S320 Photonic Switch Software User Manual

admin

OFC/NFOEC was a lively event this year with 800 technical presentations, 560 exhibitors, and more than 12,000 attendees. With a continuing increase in attendance each year over the last for years, its a clear sign that the Optical Networking Industry is in a growth phase.

We chose OFC/NFOEC as the launch vehicle for our new S320 Photonic Switch. Two years in development and building on the proven 8-year track record of the Fiber Connect product line, the S320 is the highest capacity, smallest form factor, lowest power consumption 3D MEMS photonic switch on the market. Optimized for explosive growth in Data Centers and Cloud Computing networks the S320 is a key foundation for the new generation of high-performance-computing.

The CALIENT S320 Photonic Switch system hardware. Cables: Craft serial cable (1), Unshielded Ethernet cables (2). Documentation and Software: A CD with copies of the CALIENT S320 Photonic Switch Hardware Guide, Getting Started Guide, TL1 Guide, the Alarm Reference Guide and Release Notes and the version of product software that was current at. CALIENT S320 Photonic Switch for the first time. CALIENT provides a script to access and change these default settings as needed. The system settings that can be changed include Host name, IP, Netmask and Gateway addresses, DNS servers, NTP server and Time Zone.

We found tremendous interest in CALIENT and the S320 at OFC/NFOEC from multiple market segments – data center, service provider, and government. With the speed of network evolution from 10 to 40 and 100 Gbit/s, all-optical photonic switching becomes very attractive because it scales without the need for upgrade. The extremely low latency compared with conventional OEO switching is also very attractive in many applications.

Optical Layer Orchestration Software Supports Flexible Reallocation of Expensive Servers, Accelerators, Storage, and Test Devices

The new LightConnect™ Fabric V-Pod Data Center can significantly improve server and storage operational efficiency, resulting in big reductions in data center capital investment. Powered by CALIENT’s S-Series Optical Circuit Switches and the new LightConnect™ Fabric Manager, the V-Pod architecture allows expensive compute resources to be reallocated and shared between Pods in the data center.

The LightConnect™ Fabric Manager

The LightConnect™ Fabric Manager provides software management of the dynamic optical layer in OCS-powered LightConnect™ Fabric networks. Core functions include a Topology Manager and a Cross-Connect Manager.The Fabric Manager also maintains a consolidated dashboard summary with operational status of all optical circuit switches including alarms, events, and port utilization levels.

The SDN Transport & DCI Network

Deploying CALIENT’s Optical Circuit Switches at the edges of MAN/WAN networks between vendor and domain boundaries allows Service Providers and Data Centers to virtualize all of the resources in their optical transport networks. This means that the substantial operational and economic benefits of multilayer optimization can be realized today, independent of network and vendor domain boundaries including legacy networks.
