Nistica was first to market with a new class of
lean, flexible and intelligent subsystems to
automate the edge and metro core of service provider
networks. The company’s FLEDGE series delivers a new
class of devices to fulfill the requirements of an
Agile Optical Network, while automating and
simplifying optical
systems deployment and reconfiguration in edge and
core networks. Nistica has built a leadership
reputation for the high optical performance of its
devices, driven by ultra-low insertion losses and
extremely sharp filtering functions. With the
addition of the FULL FLEDGE, Nistica now enables
cost-effective ROADM functions anywhere in the
optical network.
In a separate release today, Nistica announced that it has closed $9M in Series B financing to scale production, launch new products and expand global support for customers.
