Optical Network Management
Make your optical network infrastructure more responsive to your dynamic business needs, so you can profitably transport services at the speed of light
Optical networks have become the transport infrastructure of choice, and for good reason. Fiber optics technology can carry the greatest number and variety of services on the least amount of infrastructure.
Unfortunately, too many operators are relying on a fragmented mix of homegrown and third party network and service provisioning systems that are incapable of handling the highly dynamic nature of today's marketplace. In the face of constant planned and unexpected changes, operators' fragmented systems are error prone and unable to support the automated workflows that are required for the accurate delivery of network capacity and customer services.
Our Optical Network Management solution relies on Telcordia® Granite Inventory, Telcordia® Network Engineer, and Telcordia® Expediter to speed up the desired provisioning capabilities. With our Integrated Inventory Express Pack as the foundation, we designed a flexible, customizable solution to:
- Get optimal use of existing network assets and avoid asset stranding
- Cut network and service provisioning time and costs
- Automate order management for customer service fulfillment
- Automate order management for network build and network re-groom processes
- Enable network change management with a view of services riding on the network to eliminate or minimize services affecting changes
Our solution can easily be integrated within your operational ecosystem to improve the optical network provisioning and change management processes using the following open, flexible features:
- Service-oriented architecture
- Telcordia® COMMON LANGUAGE® integration vocabulary
- Pre-populated workflows and equipment templates
- Up-to-date, multidimensional network views
