Verizon’s 100G signal performance trial, held in late 2008, is another example of the company’s leadership in 100G technology. The trial proved that 100G performance is capable of better tolerance for signal distortion than today’s standard 10G optical transmission, an achievement that is a significant next step toward the commercialization of 100G transmission.Glenn Wellbrock , director of optical transport, network architecture and design for Verizon, discusses the importance of this trial and how each advance Verizon makes with this technology moves the company’s network closer to commercial deployment of reliable higher bandwidth speeds.
