Aspen Optics launches a configuration tool for system integrators (SI) and internet service providers (ISP) to generate solutions for fiber network connection. This tool is capable of giving instant recommendations on how to connect fiber networks. The tool, known as “Aspen Optical Ethernet Configurator”, is open to public usage. Users only need to choose the switch models they wish to connect and the distance between. The configuration engine will automatically recommend the best options to connect based on customer input. For every situation, the tool will fully consider the specifications of that piece of hardware, compatibility, interoperability, transmission mode and the distance to be connected. The tool is a valuable guide under multiple-vendor environment.
