Optimizing the migration of channels with higher Bit-rates

10G can be groomed into 40G channels or transmitted natively, reducing reach of concurrently mixed 40G channels. For long-term migration under traffic growth, optimal network cost is achieved by early investments in 40G-only transmission systems.
