2005: Infinera’s Digital Optical Network DWDM Non-blocking OTN GMPLS Infinera DTN Multi-service multplexing Hitless regrooming Point & Click Provisioning Mixture of “sub-10G” services Service Churn Digital Optical Network Key Advantage Bigger Networks → Smaller Teams

Photonic Integration: Key Enabling Technology 10 x 10Gb/s DWDM channels 10 x lasers 10 x modulators 10 x SOA amplifiers AWG wave mux

The Service Mix: Circa 2010 The Market Moves On… Mixture of “sub-10G” services Service mix becomes dominated by 10G Shift to Ethernet as the service interface 40GbE is emerging, but limited adoption 100GbE in development Need for digital grooming is reduced Service Churn But an inflection point was just around the corner!

The Shift to 100G: Circa 2012, Infinera DTN-X Source: Dell’Oro 020A Long Haul Vendor Table Q4-16, assumes 50% of Huawei & ZTE revenue in China. *Note: Data includes “other” companies at 7%, not shown #1 Worldwide Long-haul Market Share Excluding China (2012-2016) Long-haul 100G (100G Ports - Thousands) Infinera DTN-X Intelligent Transport Network Mixture of “sub-100G” services Service Churn Multi-service multplexing Hitless regrooming Point & Click Provisioning
