XKL Launches eVolocity Product Suite
a provider of fiber optic
networking systems, launched its 100GE
coherent product line, eVolocity.
The eVolocity platform provides up to 96
channels of coherent 100GE and 9.6 terabits
of line-side bandwidth per fiber pair. eVolocity
maximizes line utilization and uses statistical
multiplexing to flexibly allocate capacity on a
per-client basis.
The platform provides a bandwidth-on-demand
solution in a high-port density, 1RU form factor.
eVolocity was developed by XKL’s team of
engineers and spearheaded by the company’s
CEO and founder Len Bosack.
Ideal for data center interconnect, metro and
long-haul transport, the eVolocity platform uses
a first-of-its-kind OSI Layer 1 statistical multi-
plexing algorithm that enables dynamic alloca-
tion of bandwidth on an as-needed basis.
The virtualized interfaces enable seam-
less capacity growth as customer demands
increase, while the eVolocity platform maxi-
mizes line utilization, allowing customers to
run at full line rates.
The statistical multiplexing feature supports
flexible bandwidth allocation, with physical ports
soft-assigned priorities, providing QoS controls.
“Spectral efficiency is essential for optical
networking solutions,” Bosack explained. “In
addition to this, eVolocity is engineered to priori-
tize and allocate customer data intelligently, thus
minimizing idle capacity.
“This dynamic bandwidth allocation is unique
for Layer 1 and provides another means for
customers to handle the explosion in bandwidth
growth,” he continued. “Customers are looking
for additional methods to get more data through
the fiber. Spectral efficiency improvements via
more complex modulation formats alone will not
get the job done.”
XKL Director of Engineering Chad Lamb
added, “As with all XKL products, eVolocity
is designed with the future in mind. Typical
channel utilization of 50 percent or less leads
to a large amount of unused Layer 1 capacity;
eVolocity enables customers to reclaim this
lost bandwidth.
“On top of this capability, we are using
standard, off-the-shelf, 100GE coherent trans-
ceivers and, as coherent technology improves,
we’ll integrate these enhancements into the
product line. XKL customers will be taking
advantage of both improved spectral efficiency
in the optical domain, and superior efficiency
in channel utilization. This is the XKL differen-
tiator,” he added.
eVolocity key features include:
• 100G coherent line-side optics with 240Gb
of client-side connectivity in a compact 1 RU
form factor
• Bandwidth-on-demand with packet shaping
using statistical multiplexing
• Digital ROADM and FlexArc technology,
provides Add/Drop functionality in addition
to point-to-point, ring and mesh topologies
• Low-power consumption and smaller foot-
print, reducing recurring costs
• Offers bandwidth management at Layer
1, providing QoS for data demanding
applications
• Provides 100G lit service handoffs
Privately owned and operated by Cisco
Systems, XKL provides high-capacity DWDM
optical networking products for robust enterprise
deployment, service providers and seamless
cloud migration. The company is headquartered
in Kirkland, Wash. p

B ill Perfect Inc.
has released a
new integrated
order management
system, TBOrderMan-
agement, which is
being demonstrated
this week at The
INCOMPAS Show.
TimelyBill’s order
management feature
automates and stream-
lines order processing
for telecom service
providers.
Bill Perfect’s COO
Todd Knower explained
that “order management facilitates order-to-
cash processing by eliminating bottlenecks,
redundancies and errors.”
The order management “template builder”
uses drag-and-drop technology, which allows
for the creation of custom data input screens.
These screens can be assigned to individual
products, categories and types.
The benefits of this feature include faster
sales flow, improved customer relations and
smoother order processing.
Bill Perfect develops, markets and inte-
grates the award-winning TimelyBill Billing &
OSS. TimelyBill is a hosted, enterprise-level
billing and operations support system for
communications service providers. p
