The network you need

High availability is imperative in enterprise environments that are operating 24/7/365; a Business Continuity and Disaster Recover (BCDR) strategy must be implemented which includes geographic separation to ensure business operations can continue and mission-critical information is protected in the event of scheduled or unforeseen circumstances.

BTI solutions provide the full complement of required protocols and high capacity line rates required to address data center extension solutions. BTI 7000 Series’ dual transponder and muxponder modules offer high density, high capacity, or line protection options without module switch out. Multiprotocol software-programmable service interfaces provide data-rate and protocol-independent support for the diverse optical transport protocol requirements. All client service modules leverage SFP/XFP-based service interfaces offering simple adaptation to address various client protocols and wavelengths with limited sparing. Integrated SONET/SDH/OTN encapsulation allows connectivity to span other network environments to offer a broader reach for BCDR strategies.

BTI’s complete portfolio of transponder client service modules is certified by leading storage networking vendor programs as interoperable with Storage Area Network (SAN) infrastructure at 1G, 2G, 4G, and 10G Fibre Channel rates. This comprehensive and rigorous certification testing provides customer confidence for BTI’s high availability data center solutions.

BTI solutions provide a simplified, high capacity and scalable approach to enterprise data center connectivity in order to meet technical and business objectives and regulatory compliance initiatives. Implementing a BCDR strategy with the BTI 7000 Series provides significant operational value, simplified interoperability, greater transport capacity, and management simplicity.
