The OTNS8600-OLS open line system highly integrates VMux, Demux, OA, OTDR, OCM, OLP and OSC into a 1U box to provide customers with an intelligent, open optical layer DCI network that is decoupled from the electrical level.

An open line system (OLS) is a traditional optical line system used in telecoms that frees users from vendor lock-ins and allows for the configuration of a network that uses best-in-class parts from a variety of different manufacturers and vendors.
A truly open line system (OLS) is capable of transporting wavelengths from multiple vendors. Additionally, an OLS can be easily integrated into software-defined environments through open, standards-based application programming interfaces (APIs).
The basic optical fiber consists of two concentric layers—the inner core and the outer cladding, which has a refractive index lower than the core.
