Avago Technologies, Infinera & Ixia to demo the first 100 Gi

Avago Technologies, Infinera and Ixia are collaborating on live demonstrations that will send 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100 GbE) traffic over a long-haul network from Infinera's booth at NXTcomm08 in Las Vegas June 17-19th. The traffic is handed off to a 100 GbE interface on the Infinera DTN DWDM transport system. The 100 GbE signal is then switched and transported by the DTN through a long-haul DWDM network to Los Angeles, where it is looped back and then transported back to the Infinera booth in Las Vegas. Performance metrics will reported from the Ixia XM2 chassis. Ixia's proof-of-concept demonstration includes the first implementation of the Multi-Lane Distribution (MLD) protocol architecture, the new 100 GbE Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) approved as the baseline proposal just last month by the IEEE 802.3ba task force. MLD bonds multiple physical lanes into a single, logical 100 GbE link. Currently, the highest line rate commonly available for Ethernet is 10 GbE. Ixia and Infinera have been working with the 802.3ba task force from its inception and are committed to supporting efforts to reach an industry-wide standard.
