Telecom operators and service providers are under pressure to deliver a wide range of services—from consumer broadband and mobile traffic to enterprise connectivity and cloud access—over a unified infrastructure. 400G Transceivers play a pivotal role in enabling this network convergence, allowing providers to simplify operations while opening new revenue opportunities.

The Challenge

Traditional telecom architectures often required separate networks or overlays for different services, leading to complexity, higher costs, and scalability issues. Modern providers face challenges such as:

  • Supporting diverse traffic types (mobile, residential, enterprise, and cloud) across the same optical infrastructure.
  • Reducing operational complexity by consolidating multiple network layers.
  • Accelerating time-to-market for new digital services.
  • Meeting SLAs for enterprise and cloud customers without building parallel transport systems.

Operators need a scalable, high-capacity optical solution that unifies services and maximizes infrastructure ROI.

Why 400G Transceivers from Carritech Optics?

Carritech Optics supplies 400G Transceivers that enable operators to converge multiple services onto a single transport layer. Key advantages include:

  1. High-Capacity Convergence
    400G modules carry consumer broadband, mobile backhaul, enterprise VPNs, and cloud traffic simultaneously across shared links.
  2. Flexible Wavelength Options
    Available in DR4, FR4, and DWDM variants, enabling metro, regional, and backbone deployments with service separation when needed.
  3. Simplified Network Design
    Consolidates previously separate 10G, 40G, and 100G links into unified 400G channels, reducing the number of layers to manage.
  4. Service Agility
    Provides the bandwidth headroom to launch new services—such as edge computing, 5G slicing, and enterprise cloud connectivity—without redesigning the network.
  5. Operational Efficiency
    Fewer parallel networks and optical paths mean easier management, faster provisioning, and lower total cost of ownership.

Example Deployment Scenarios

Converged Metro Networks

Operators deploy 400G optics to unify residential broadband, mobile backhaul, and enterprise services within a single metro transport fabric.

Cloud On-Ramp Services

Service providers use 400G optics to deliver direct, high-speed connections to public cloud platforms, meeting enterprise demand for secure cloud access.

5G and Fixed-Mobile Convergence

400G modules enable operators to transport both 5G mobile traffic and fixed broadband over shared backbone links, supporting seamless convergence.

Multi-Tenant Carrier Networks

Wholesale carriers leverage 400G transceivers to support multiple enterprise customers and services on the same infrastructure while maintaining SLA guarantees.
