This paper provides the TIP OOPT MUST target architecture for Disaggregated Open Optical Networks. We describe the meaning of “Open”, the functions associated with the use cases and the degree of “Disaggregation” of the monolithic transport optical system.

The main sections of this white paper will discuss Open-Optical Terminals (O-OT), focusing on Open-Optical Line Interfaces (O-OLI), Open-Optical Line Systems (O-OLS), Open-Planning and Impairment Validation (O-PaIV) and the management guidelines via SDN and APIs.
