Marketwired
Infinera (NASDAQ: INFN) has successfully deployed a transatlantic
route of over 6,000 kilometers for a major global
telecommunications service provider. The new route provides the
service provider 1.76 Terabits/second (Tb/s) of optical capacity on
a single fiber pair.
The Infinera Submarine Solution uses Infinera's double-density
technology to enable wavelengths to be implemented on a 25
Gigahertz channel grid, providing for doubling the density or
capacity compared to traditional DWDM optical systems implemented
on a 50 Gigahertz channel grid.
Based on the Infinera DTN, the Infinera Submarine Solution is
designed to offer end users numerous significant benefits over
traditional submarine systems. In addition to increasing capacity,
the Infinera solution is intended to enable a submarine service
provider to deliver new services while simultaneously increasing
the space and power efficiency of the land-based submarine system.
An innovative dispersion management solution is engineered to
simplify dispersion management.
With its Digital Optical Networks architecture based on photonic
integrated circuits, the Infinera Submarine Solution is intended to
enable quick and easy deployment, provisioning, and management of
the network, often reducing the time it takes to add new services
to the system from months to days.
Infinera has enjoyed market success since launching the Infinera
Submarine Solution last year. The Infinera system is designed to
enable service providers to accommodate demand growth without the
need to invest in their subsea infrastructure. Infinera's Submarine
Solution has already been deployed in submarine networks in North
America, the Caribbean, and South America.
"We believe that Infinera is an ideal solution for those subsea
service providers seeking to update their plant and increase their
capacity without incurring large capital expenditures," said Mike
Guess, Infinera Vice-President of Network Architecture. "With the
completion of this project, the Infinera Submarine Solution is now
deployed on over 50,000km of submarine cable systems."
About Infinera Infinera provides Digital
Optical Networking systems to telecommunications carriers
worldwide. Infinera's systems are unique in their use of a
breakthrough semiconductor technology: the photonic integrated
circuit (PIC). Infinera's systems and PIC technology are designed
to provide customers with simpler and more flexible engineering and
operations, faster time-to-service, and the ability to rapidly
deliver differentiated services without reengineering their optical
infrastructure. For more information, please visit
