Infinera Capital and Operational Savings

• Digital Optical Network offers dramatic Capex
  savings
• Savings of 60 to 75 compared to Next Gen
  network builds
• Cost effective compared to existing deployed
  systems after 3 to 6 channels
• Enables even more significant Opex savings
• Reduced space and power requirements
• Significantly reduced spares needed
• Deployment is simplified and installation time is
  reduced
• Provides a simplified SDH-like WDM network
• Reduced field maintenance because just add tribs
  at ingress and egress and pass through other
  nodes
• 100G is deployed per DLM fewer site visits
  required
• System reliability is increased
• GMPLS control plane provides first intelligent
  transport system
• Provides ultra-low cost transport with bandwidth
  management capabilities
• Allows network design optimization based on
  service delivery vs. WDM cost avoidance
• Provides increased performance monitoring data
