Australia Japan Cable Completes Multi-Terabit Network Upgrade With
Infinera Intelligent Transport Network(TM)
SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwired - May 20, 2014) - Infinera
(NASDAQ: INFN), provider of Intelligent Transport Networks, and
Australia Japan Cable (AJC) announced the completion of a
multi-terabit upgrade to AJC's network. This second and final phase
of deployment completes a multi-terabit, high-capacity ring
providing diverse fiber paths into cable landing stations in
Australia, Guam and Japan, where Infinera DTN-X packet optical
transport networking platforms enable an Intelligent Transport
Network for AJC.
AJC offers connectivity and bandwidth to its customers across a
12,700 km submarine fiber optic cable network linking Australia,
Guam and Japan. AJC is owned by some of the world's leading service
providers including Telstra, AT&T, NTT, Verizon and
Softbank.
"This network upgrade with Infinera's Intelligent Transport
Network has enabled the retirement of AJC's original 10G transport
equipment and the transfer of traffic to the more capable Infinera
DTN-X platform," said Philip Murphy, Head of Engineering at AJC.
"The original AJC 10G technology served us well but the efficiency,
flexibility and speed of deploying the Infinera DTN-X to deliver
100G allows AJC to be more responsive to our customers in terms of
client interfaces and traffic switching."
The Infinera Intelligent Transport Network, featuring the DTN-X
packet optical networking platform, delivers the only commercially
available single-card 500 gigabit per second (Gb/s) super-channel
solution. This unique capability is made possible by Infinera's
widely deployed 500 Gb/s photonic integrated circuits. An
Intelligent Transport Network is designed to enable AJC to easily
scale to terabits of transmission capacity, integrating DWDM
optical transmission and in the future up to 12 terabits per second
of non-blocking OTN switching into a single platform. Infinera's
intelligent software combined with this converged platform
automates network operations to reduce both operational cost and
service delivery times. The Infinera DTN-X is designed to scale
without compromise enabling future upgrades to single-card terabit
super-channels.
"We are honored to work with AJC to complete their deployment of
an Intelligent Transport Network," said Andrew Bond Webster, Vice
President Sales at Infinera. "Now, AJC may rapidly deliver
high-capacity services to their customers across a highly resilient
network."
