Optical Timing Channel 2.0

Supporting network operators’ 5G xHaul strategies, Infinera's OTC2.0 provides a dedicated disaggregated optical timing channel that delivers high-performance synchronization and timing distribution over any optical transport network. OTC2.0 enables network operators to enhance the resiliency of their synchronization and timing networks and decouple timing strategies from total reliance on GNSS-based timing at every network node. OTC2.0 enables network operators to build virtual PRTC (vPRTC) timing cloud architectures with sub-100-ns performance to every network node.
