Optovia's SpanExpress solution enables enterprises such as finance and banking, insurance, healthcare, and government to implement business continuance and disaster recovery strategies utilizing storage area networks and optical transport technologies to locate data centers up to 200 kilometers away without the cost, complexity and risks associated with mid-span amplification. SpanExpress is a deployment-ready, rack-mountable, optical line system that is utilized between the storage devices at the local and remote data centers. Optovia's SpanExtender offers a very cost effective and readily deployed solution for enhancing optical transmission systems using Raman amplification techniques. Supplementing an existing platform with an off-the-shelf network ready solution is an attractive way to extend system life once the original system design targets have been surpassed either by operator expectations or network conditions. SpanExtender offers a truly flexible solution in multiple dimensions, from optimizable optical characteristics to user appropriate management solutions. Optovia's AdvancedTCA300 offering is a carrier class, highly available, five-slot chassis (C4000) is the first 300mm compliant chassis with an ATCA backplane. The ATCA300's open standard is valuable for many companies in the optical networking space. The platform, with its standard form factor and standard interfaces enables independent optical technology vendors to offer "best in breed building blocks" to their customers. ATCA300 enables them to offer customers "ready-to-use" solutions with minimal engineering investment. With ATCA300, equipment suppliers offer differentiation with the strength of their application technology, rather than with the footprint of their products.
