Data Center Interconnect

Unify your IP and Optical layers to build a massively scalable, cost-effective DCI network ready for AI/ML workloads with a single, disaggregated software platform.

Discover Key Advantages

A Unified Platform for Your DCI

Intense pressure from AI and hybrid-cloud workloads is forcing a paradigm shift in DCI. Managing separate, vendor-locked IP and optical layers is no longer sustainable—it creates operational friction, inflates costs, and hinders automation.

OcNOS® offers a strategic alternative: a single, disaggregated software platform that unifies packet and optical transport, empowering you to build a more scalable, resilient, and cost-effective DCI network on your own terms.

Converged IP+Optical for DCI

Eliminate costly transponders and simplify your architecture with IPoDWDM. OcNOS integrates high-performance 400G ZR/ZR+ coherent optics directly into the router, dramatically reducing CapEx, power consumption, and latency.

Open, Disaggregated Ecosystem

Break free from vendor lock-in and de-risk your supply chain. The OcNOS disaggregated model gives you the freedom to choose best-in-class whitebox hardware and optics, lowering Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by up to 75%.

Accelerate Service Delivery

Seamlessly extend Layer 2 and Layer 3 services between data centers. OcNOS provides comprehensive support for EVPN-VXLAN and Segment Routing (SR-MPLS) to deliver secure, multi-tenant connectivity with granular traffic engineering.

Ready for AI & Automation

Prepare your network for the demands of AI/ML. OcNOS provides a highly observable and programmable foundation, streaming granular, real-time telemetry via gNMI and OpenConfig to power modern AIOps and automation platforms.

IOWN Global Forum Logo

The Innovative Optical and Wireless Network (IOWN) Global Forum is developing next-generation All-Photonics Networks. As a leading NOS solution provider, IP Infusion ensures OcNOS is aligned with the future of DCI, protecting your investment for the next era of optical interconnects.

OcNOS DCI Scenarios

OcNOS provides the performance and intelligence required across all DCI deployment models, from short-reach campus links to long-haul connections.
 

Scenario Typical Distance Optical Layer Packet Layer Typical Ownership Model
Intra-campus DCI <10 km Grey optics (100G/400G SR4/DR4) EVPN-VXLAN Enterprise owns all network components.
Metro DCI 10–120 km 400G ZR IPoDWDM over dark fiber SR-MPLS Enterprise/CSP owns packet gear & owns/leases fiber.
Regional DCI 120–600 km 400G ZR+ IPoDWDM SR-MPLS Enterprise/CSP owns packet gear & leases optical service.
Long-haul DCI >600 km Coherent DWDM line systems w/ ROADMs SR-MPLS Carrier owns optical network; Enterprise leases capacity.
