Infinera (Nasdaq: INFN) announced today that Xarxa Oberta de
Catalunya, also known as Xarxa Oberta or XOC, the leading network
provider in Catalonia and a subsidiary of the global Cellnex Group,
deployed Infinera’s XTM Series to meet the growing broadband
demands of government networks across the Catalonia region in
Spain. With Infinera’s XTM packet-optical solution, Xarxa Oberta
can provide government networks up to 400 GbE services on its fiber
optic network. Xarxa Oberta also tested Infinera’s ICE6 solution on
the GX Series Compact Modular Platform, validating its ability to
run optical signals up to 800G on its network to allow for scaling
in the future.
As a wholesale network operator, Xarxa Oberta operates the
leading optical fiber network in Catalonia, offering Ethernet
services, dark fiber, and colocation services that provide the
region with the most robust high-speed services available.
Infinera’s XTM Series equips Xarxa Oberta with a range of
innovative packet optical transport solutions to deliver an
architecture optimized for the needs of the region. The XTM Series
solution enhances Xarxa Oberta’s network, enabling it to extend
flexible, reliable high-capacity connectivity with low power
consumption to government networks.
“Catalonia is a fast-growing region with more than 900
municipalities and almost 8 million inhabitants, requiring constant
investments in our network to ensure we continually provide the
most robust communications services to our customers. Infinera’s
XTM solution delivers the flexible services required today, and the
ability to upgrade to ICE6 will enable us to scale to meet the
demands of government networks in the future,” said Joan Cervera,
CEO at Xarxa Oberta.
“Infinera is pleased to partner with Xarxa Oberta to deliver
cost-effective, high-speed services that meet the growing bandwidth
needs of government entities in a very densely populated region,”
said Nick Walden, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales, Infinera.
“Looking ahead, the successful test validating 800G services on
Xarxa Oberta’s network paves the way for an ongoing partnership
that will allow Xarxa Oberta to continue to scale and expand their
services to meet future demand.”
