Why do optical fiber signals need encryption? With the explosive development of cloud computing and cloud storage, more and more sensitive information is stored and transmitted in the data center. In order to ensure the security and reliability of data transmission, OTN transmission equipment is required to support data encryption.

Danriver WDM/OTN MXP10Ge-Crypto fits into CTX1000 1RU 19’’ chassis,supports client service encryption,advanced transport layer encryption, which Integrates security engine enabling end-to-end AES-256-based encryption and authentication, The MXP10Ge-Crypto encrypts the received signal and transmit them through optical transmission network, then the service is decrypted on the client port at the other end.

OTN CTX1000Ge-crypto

Which compared with traditional encryption solutions such as L2 encryption and L3 encryption, L1 service encryption uses transport devices to transparently transmit client services. It has advantages in low bandwidth usage, low latency and support for multiple services.

These are flexible, low latency, protocol agnostic Layer 1 OTN payload encryption,The service encryption function uses an encryption algorithm to encrypt client services at the physical layer, Service encryption on a WDM/OTN network is called layer-1 service encryption,that enabling network provider deploying a highly secure and reliable transport solution.

Most application scenarios are bidirectional P2P service encryption, but also Unidirectional P2P/P2MP Service Encryption, such as broadcast services, that are video services, are commonly unidirectional P2P/P2MP services.
