Nokia Solution Focus Areas

Nokia Optical Networks

Nokia Optical Networks formerly known as Infinera Corporation. Redefining optical networking and automating network operations for the telecommunications service provider, enterprise and public sector markets.

Nokia in the Advanced Technology Center

Nokia Routing: ISIS Fundamentals

This lab covers the fundamentals of ISIS routing on Nokia's Service Router Operating System (SR-OS).
Foundations Lab
53 launches

Passive Optical Networks (PON)

This learning series will explore Passive Optical Networks (PON). PON is a fiber-optic communication system typically deployed to deliver high-speed internet, TV, and phone services to homes and businesses. It uses a single optical fiber that splits passively (without powered equipment) to connect multiple users. This technology is efficient, cost-effective, and reliable because it reduces the need for active electronic components in the network, lowering maintenance and energy costs.
Learning Series

Infinera ICE-X XR Intelligent Coherent Pluggables

Infinera's ICE-X XR Intelligent Coherent Pluggables are a set of pluggable Digital Coherent Optics that can operate in a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint configuration for optical network connectivity.
Learning Path

Infinera Intelligent Pluggable Manager (IPM) Lab
