3 CrossCage Plus Automated Cross Connects port-to-port latency. CrossCage Plus uses OPX along with AllPath Connect FPAs and AllPath Director to create the industry s first automated Meet-Me-Room solution for multi-tenant colocation data centers. In today s colocation data centers, the delivery of Meet-Me- Room services is manual, and involves a lengthy deployment process. Technicians physically establish or change connections and document them by hand, which is an expensive, time-consuming process subject to human error. Fiber Mountain s CrossCage Plus uses the award-winning Glass Core to complete colocation data center cross-connect requests in minutes instead of weeks! Deliver cross-connect services with unprecedented speed and accuracy. Instant service delivery of connections from cage, to Meet-Me-Room, to carrier network. Electronically documented and dynamically provisioned. Customers can log into their web portal, request connection to a new carrier, and see the connection to their cage appear within minutes. Enables new Connection-On-Demand services, such as flexible bandwidth connectivity plans.

4 Layer 1 SDN Switching port-to-port latency. This is a 100x improvement over the lowest-latency packet switches. Industries where every microsecond counts like High Frequency Trading, High Performance Computing, and data intensive flash-based storage transfer demand the lowest latency. OPX offers 100x improvement over the lowest-latency packet switches with five nanosecond port-to-port latency and simultaneous bump in the wire multicast of 10/40/100 Gbps flows. Improvements in the network have typically ignored the physical layer, leaving it with no software management and limited visibility. Intelligent fiber panels and OPX for SDN-controlled crossconnect with high-density onboard optics allow direct, highbandwidth connections between devices with protocol transparency and much lower latency compared to alternative switch-based systems. Programmable Light Path (PLP) connections are configured and reconfigured by the AllPath Director orchestration system without the need for human hands to manually move cables.

5 Test Automation port-to-port latency. The ability to save configuration profiles allows operators to reconfigure the entire test network on demand, in a matter of seconds. Network and Cloud infrastructure lab tests such as benchmarking for different equipment vendors, often require interconnection of many servers, network switches and other infrastructure elements, but manual re-rewiring of network connections is time consuming and subject to human error. Fiber Mountain's OPX features a flexible API interface to configure and reconfigure device connectivity among its 160 ports via software, no manual rewiring required. This introduces the ability to switch rapidly between systems under test, with a degree of speed and accuracy that is unavailable through conventional manual approaches, and enables the execution of fully automated test suites. Reconfigure 10G or 40 G network connections via software to switch rapidly between systems under test Ensure full visibility and control of the physical connectivity in the test network Protocol agnostic Layer 1 switching with 100% accuracy and ultra-low latency Real-time electronic documentation of all connectivity, including moves, adds and changes Standalone interface allows OPX to be used as a software-controlled layer 1 switch in any network, with or without AllPath Director and AllPath Connect

6 High Density TAP Network port-to-port latency. As part of a Glass Core network, it provides active TAP to simultaneously multicast flows to their destinations and as many monitoring devices as required, for the industry's highest density optical TAP. Comprehensive network monitoring with traditional TAP approaches requires an entire parallel network, which makes it a huge investment in infrastructure, space and complexity. Managed by AllPath Director, a network built with OPX and AllPath Connect FPAs in each rack provides a unique active TAP functionality with the ability to simultaneously multicast flows to up to 160 destinations with a single OPX, scalable to many thousands of destinations with multiple units. Simultaneously multicast flows to their destination port(s) and as many monitoring devices as required Provision new TAP connections via software on an as-needed basis 5 nanoseconds port-to-port latency enables highaccuracy time-stamping for diagnostics Protocol-agnostic data transfer

7 One-to-Many Data Broadcast port-to-port latency. As part of a Glass Core network or as a standalone unit, it provides protocol-agnostic point-to-point and point-to -multipoint data transmission which allows simultaneous multicast to hundreds or thousands of destinations. Applications such as high frequency and low latency trading, video stream distribution and security analytics require high speed data streams to be sent to many destinations in parallel. Traditional switching approaches add too much latency and do not scale effectively. Fiber Mountain's Layer 1 switching solutions allow data to be broadcast simultaneously to 160 destinations with a single OPX - or many thousands of destinations with cascaded OPX units. Ultra low latency of 5 nanoseconds per hop and bitlevel replication allow data to arrive at multiple destinations with extremely low data skew. Simultaneously multicast flows to their destination port(s) with 5 nanoseconds port-to-port latency 160 x 10 Gbps duplex ports per unit, which can be bundled in 40 Gbps channels for high-volume flows Protocol-agnostic data transfer Reconfigure connections via software to meet changing business needs
