Nokia 1830 PSS-24x

The 1830 Photonic Services Switch (PSS) portfolio consists of platforms

optimized for varying optical network deployment environments ranging
from interconnecting data centers to efficiently scaling large metro, regional
and long-haul multi-layer, multiservice optical networks. Each platform
leverages common software, hardware, management and control to offer
seamless operations across the portfolio.

The 1830 PSS-24x platform is optimized for core

and large metro packet/optical transport network
(OTN) switching applications, placing industry-
leading electrical switching scale at international/
national, regional and metro core network locations.
It provides the scale and efficiency required to
support an evolution to 100G/400G services,
enabling continued revenue streams as customers
demand more bandwidth and enterprises move
toward higher capacity connectivity between their
routers and data centers.
With support for 24 Tb/s of electrical switching
capacity in a single shelf, 48 Tb/s per rack, the Nokia
1830 PSS-24x offers industry-leading OTN and
packet switch scale, port densities, and wavelength
distances, while also using less power per bit. Nokia 1830 PSS-24x
