- CienaCN 4200™ FlexSelect™ Advanced Services PlatformThe CN 4200™ FlexSelect™ Advanced Services Platform is a new generation multiservice transport and aggregation platform capable of supporting any transport protocol-including Time Division Multiplexing (TDM), Ethernet, storage or video-on any available port, even when on the same line card. The first in the industry to offer user programmable line ports, the CN 4200 allows services of up to 10 Gb/s to be provisioned, upgraded or changed with point-and-click ease-without introducing new modules. With embedded support for industry-standard protocols and third party interoperability, the CN 4200 not only protects your existing investments but also offers a simple and risk-free path to meet changing IT and networking demands.
- Ciena FlexSelect ArchitectureService providers and major enterprises are demanding new levels of flexibility in their networks to facilitate a packet migration strategy that is practical, profitable and deployable today without undermining the ability to support yet-unimagined services of tomorrow. Ciena's FlexSelect Architecture is designed to achieve those specific objectives through intelligence and automation.
FlexSelect is a software-first architecture that combines programmable hardware with service-oriented management functionality, automating delivery and management of any mix of services including SONET/SDH, Ethernet, storage and video. It's a standards-based architecture that enables unprecedented flexibility, adaptability and manageability-migrating legacy infrastructure to an on-demand, service-selectable network that maximizes the investment in current-generation services while empowering the network to also deliver efficient packet services that are more cost effective to deploy, scale and manage.
