  1. An OIF OverviewITUAll Star Network Access workshopJune 2004, GenevaJohn McDonough V.P. OIF

  2. OIF Overview • Launched in April of 1998 with an objective to foster development of low-cost and scaleable internet using optical technologies • The only industry group bringing together professionals from the data and optical worlds • Open forum: 170+ member companies • International • Carriers • Component and systems vendors • Testing and software companies • Our MissionTo foster the development and deployment of interoperable products and services for data switching and routing using optical networking technologies

  3. OIF Focus • Low-cost Scaleable Optical Internetworking • IP-Over-Switched Optical Network Architecture • Physical layer • Low-cost optical interfaces between networking elements • Standard device level electrical interfaces for low-cost systems • Control layer interoperability between data and optical layers • Dynamic configuration using IP signaling and control mechanisms • Accommodate legacy network under the new physical and control layer mechanisms

  4. Output from OIF • Develop implementation agreements using • Carrier group’s requirements as input • Existing standards and specifications when available • Developing new when necessary • Develop interoperability testing procedure to ensure compliance and ultimately interoperable products and networks • Provide input into other standards bodies

  5.
