Anritsu Network Master Pro (400G Tester) MT1040A transport analyzer (pictured) will support the Quad Small Form Factor Pluggable Double Density (QSFP-DD), a removable optical module now also specified in the OpenROADM MSA standard.
In this demonstration the MT1040A analyser verifies error-free communication in its connection with multi-vendor transmission equipment as part of an interoperability network simulation.
The QSFP-DD based on 400ZR/OpenZR+with coherent optical communication technology offers significant advantages in power savings, space efficiency, and cost reduction, making it a popular choice for point-to-point data center interconnects (DCI).
In a very recent significant advancement, the OpenROADM MSA addressed the lack of standardization for multi-site connections, promoting openness in transmission networks and approving the new QSFP-DD for market use in 2023.
At ECOC 2024, the MT1040A will showcase this innovative, OpenROADM MSA-compliant QSFP-DD in real-time, dynamic demonstrations at both the OIF stand #B83 and the Anritsu stand #C1.
Anritsu, having joined the OpenROADM MSA in May 2024, actively contributes to the study, simulation, and promotion of network openness.
