Coriant Hit 7065

The Coriant HiT 7065 is a next-generation, carrier-class multi-service transport platform within the HiT 70xx series that integrates SDH, Ethernet switching, ATM, OTN, WDM, and ASON/GMPLS in a single compact chassis. Sharing hardware and software commonality with the widely deployed HiT 7080, the HiT 7065 simplifies operations, reduces deployment cost, and accelerates service delivery through streamlined service integration.

This flexible platform offers comprehensive SDH grooming, integrated packet switching, and Carrier Ethernet features for point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and multipoint-to-multipoint configurations. It is particularly well-suited for service providers migrating from traditional SDH/MSPP networks toward resilient, packet-based transport for applications like mobile backhaul, Triple‑Play, and business services. Scalable and compact, the HiT 7065 supports services up to 10 Gbps and optional WDM integration, making it ideal for both metro and core aggregation deployments.

• Multi-Service Integration
  Supports SDH, Ethernet, ATM, OTN, and WDM in a single compact platform, enabling seamless convergence of legacy and next-generation services.

• Carrier Ethernet Capabilities
  Offers advanced Layer 2 switching with VLAN tagging, QoS, traffic shaping, multicast support, and Ethernet OAM tools for service assurance.

• Flexible Service Mapping
  Enables point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and multipoint-to-multipoint configurations—ideal for enterprise, mobile backhaul, and Triple-Play services.

• High Bandwidth Support
  Scales up to 10 Gbps per service, supporting STM-1, STM-4, STM-16, and STM-64 SDH interfaces as well as Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

• WDM-Ready
  Optional integration with WDM transport to increase capacity and reduce fiber usage in metro and long-haul applications.

• Advanced Traffic Grooming
  Comprehensive SDH grooming and cross-connect functionality for efficient bandwidth utilization across multiple service types.

• Resilient Architecture
  Built-in support for protection mechanisms such as SNCP, MSP, and Ethernet RSTP ensures high availability and sub-50ms failover.

• Modular and Scalable Design
  Compact, rack-mountable chassis with modular slots allows flexible expansion and easy adaptation to changing network needs.

• Operational Efficiency
  Shared hardware and software architecture with the HiT 7080 series reduces training and maintenance requirements across platforms.

• Network Management Support
  Fully compatible with centralised management systems, supporting SNMP, CLI, and remote provisioning for simplified operations.
