The Optical Metro 5100/5200 platform maximizes the power of WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) to transparently deliver high-bandwidth network services across an open, scalable, survivable optical transport platform. The Optical Metro 5100/5200 enables service providers to offer enterprise customers high-speed data services. It also provides a robust solution to all enterprise customers who are currently facing the challenge of creating a highly resilient and scalable transmission network to support their remote storage and business continuity infrastructure.

As a natural extension of Nortel’s comprehensive and industry leading Optical Metro 5100/5200 platforms, the Optical Metro 5130 addresses the natural convergence of voice, data and storage networks into a secure, optimized and simple network infrastructure. The OM 5130 platform address the enterprise requirements for a more secure, efficient, productive, cost conscious and resilient WAN infrastructure that adheres to today's regulatory and compliance objectives without added complexity.
