Ciena: 8140 Coherent Metro Router

Ciena’s 8140 Coherent Metro Router is purpose-built for 10/25/100GbE services and 10/25/100GbE to 400GbE aggregation. With high-faceplate-density 100GbE interfaces and the coherent option of WaveLogic™ 5 Nano (WL5n), the 8140 cost-effectively pushes the boundary of high-speed, high-density routing and switching applications.

Judge’s Comment: “This is useful for any operator with limited fiber availability needing to feed next-gen access networks in the field.”
