Apollo 9400 Series

High Density Optical Networking


Apollo 9400 high-density optical networking platforms enable data center operators and communications service providers to efficiently handle the immense and ever-growing traffic flows generated by the AI-powered Internet economy.

Apollo 9400 platforms can be managed alongside other Ribbon IP and optical networking platforms via Muse Multilayer Automation Platform or deployed in a disaggregated manner via open APIs.

Ribbon Apollo 9408

High Density Optical Transport Platform

Apollo 9408 is the industry’s highest-density platform for 100GbE, 400GbE, and 800GbE optical transport. Its selection of sleds provides network and data center operators with both capacity-reach optimized and power-cost optimized transport solutions that can be applied from metro to ultra-long-haul distances on

Capacity-reach Optimized Transport

For capacity-reach optimized transport, pluggable 5nm-140Gbaud transceivers utilize continuous baud rate and continuous modulation controls to maximize the line rate, from 400G to 1200G, for any distance and channel width up to the edge of the Shannon Limit.

Power-cost Optimized Transport

For power-cost optimized transport, both pluggable 400ZR+ and 800ZR+ transceivers are available on the same sled to accommodate different traffic needs.

High Density Open Optical Line System

Apollo 9458 is a high-density OLS that supports two ROADM degrees per RU. It can be configured with an array of photonic cards to deliver powerful value-added capabilities, including:

  • Transport and CDC-F routing of alien wavelengths originating from routers, switches, or transponders
  • Shared spectrum, including spectral pipes and virtual optical networks
  • Integrated optical power monitoring
  • OTDR fiber health management
  • WSON restoration
