    ADAPT TO CHANGE WITH THE UNIVERSAL SWITCHING OF OTN, PACKET, & SONET/SDH
    The agnostic cell-based fabrics of the mTera UTP support the universal switching of OTN, packet, and SONET/SDH at the electrical layer.
    The OSM modules provide the ability to select OTN, MPLS-TP (including VPLS/H-VPLS), and Carrier Ethernet (including VLAN cross-
    connects and Ethernet bridging) for each interface or virtual interface with the option of wire-speed AES-256 encryption of ODU payloads.
    The SSM2S module supports SONET/SDH switching and interworking to packet and OTN on the OSM modules.

    PREPARE FOR THE FUTURE WITH SCALABLE, FLEXIBLE ROUTE AND SELECT ROADM
    The mTera UTP provides the option to converge both electrical switching and optical switching in a single platform. The mTera UTP
    optical layer modules include 9-port and 20-port route and select ROADM-on-a-blades, colorless/directionless (CD) modules, a colorless/
    directionless/contentionless (CDC) module, a Raman amplifier, an EDFA amplifier for optical line amplifier (OLA) applications, and an Optical
    Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) pluggable. These optical layer modules are supported in both the 14-slot mTera shelf and the 8-slot
    mTera shelf. ROADM systems can be deployed in a single shelf, or to maximize availability, ROADM degrees and add/drop modules can be
    distributed over multiple shelves. The mTera UTP optical layer modules can be deployed with electrical switching in the same shelf, or they
    can be deployed in optical-only shelves that avoid the cost and power consumption of the electrical switching fabrics.

    BOOST REACH AND SPECTRAL EFFICIENCY WITH CLOUDWAVE-ENABLED FLEXI-RATE


    INTERFACES
    The mTera UTP also provides the option of flexi-rate interfaces powered by Infinera CloudWave Optics technology with support for 100G
    (QPSK), 150G (8QAM), and 200G (16QAM). Ideal for long haul applications, these interfaces enable reach of over 5,000 km in terrestrial
    networks and over 12,000 km in subsea networks. 200G (16QAM) and super-channel support enable high spectral efficiency with over 25
    Tbps per fiber pair. Additional Infinera CloudWave Optics benefits include low power consumption, robust performance under challenging
    fiber conditions, fast protection, comprehensive performance monitoring, and compatibility with existing networks including mixed 10G/100G
    networks. In the near future, we anticipate even greater reach and spectral efficiency will be enabled with the integration of Infinera
    CloudWave T Optics technology.

    MAXIMIZE NETWORK AND SERVICE AVAILABILITY WITH COMPREHENSIVE PROTECTION


    AND RESTORATION
    Designed to offer protection against single points of failure of its common equipment modules, each module in the mTera UTP receives power
    from two independent external sources. The platform supports N:1 fabric redundancy, which provides cost-effective protection against a fabric
    failure. Equipment protection also includes the fans and processor modules. At the network level, in addition to a comprehensive set of OTN,
    packet, and SONET/SDH protection mechanisms, the mTera UTP supports restoration with both traditional ASON/GMPLS and SDN-enabled
    vASON.
