Optical Transport (OTN/WDM)
Why Ribbon Communications Optical Network Solutions?
With the Apollo and Artemis systems, Ribbon offers high-performance solutions for modern optical networks – scalable, efficient and future-proof.
Apollo stands for programmable and open network architectures with flexible ROADMs, OTN switches as well as high-performance transponders and muxponders – ideal for dynamic services from access to the core.
Artemis complements the portfolio with passive WDM components such as CWDM, DWDM and OADM modules in 1U and 2U versions. The systems enable a space-saving and cost-efficient expansion of existing fiber-optic infrastructures.
Together, Apollo and Artemis form a modular platform for high-performance, flexible and economical optical transport networks.
