Ascend Communications and Williams Network Test Breakthrough Optical Networking Solutions
biz.yahoo.com

Ascend and Williams are testing with two leading DWDM solutions: OMDS from Pirelli Cables & Systems Worldwide and MultiWave Sentry(TM) from CIENA Corp. Pirelli is a global manufacturer of communications and power cables and systems. CIENA is a provider of DWDM systems for long-distance and local exchange carriers.

"We are enthusiastic about the opportunity to work with Ascend and Williams to define the next generation converged network, where ATM natively interfaces to WDM equipment," said Larry Huang, senior vice president of sales and marketing for CIENA. "We have committed $2 million worth of equipment to demonstrate that these networks can be built today with innovations like Ascend's "Smart" Core GX 550 ATM switches. This architecture positions Williams for continued success."
