Deployment topologies

This chapter describes examples of deployment topologies that utilize the Routed Optical Networking architecture.

Routed Optical Networking supports these deployment topologies.

  • Metro and Regional: This topology is used for shorter reach metro use cases and longer regional use cases.

  • Long Haul: This topology is used for distances greater than 400 km.

    The QDD-400G-ZR-S optic has a maximum reach of 120 km. Longer distances require the use of QDD-400G-ZRP-S optics.

The Routed Optical Networking solution architecture or network design is the same for any network such as core, aggregation, or DCI. The only differentiating factor is the hardware that is used for any deployment.
