GTT Communications, Inc. (NYSE: GTT), a leading global cloud
networking provider to multinational clients, announced today the
upgrade of its fiber network across several of its European routes.
The network upgrades enhance the capacity and performance
capability of GTT’s Tier 1 global IP network footprint for its
enterprise and carrier clients.
GTT has upgraded routes that connect network points of presence
in London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt and Paris, including the subsea
link between the United Kingdom and The Netherlands, along with an
additional route in southern Europe that connects Madrid and
Marseille. GTT has also deployed more fiber capacity on its metro
networks in Paris and Marseille. The upgrade to the Marseille metro
network extends to multiple subsea cable landing stations.
Additionally, GTT has expanded its European network footprint by
deploying a new point of presence in Belgrade, Serbia.
GTT utilized Infinera’s FlexILS line system and high-performance
ICE4 optical engine with instant bandwidth to complete the
upgrades. These technologies work together to double network
capacity, enhance the network’s software-defined capabilities and
provide clients with faster service delivery.
“Europe is a major market for GTT, and we are continuing to
invest in our advanced network infrastructure to support clients’
ever increasing bandwidth requirements,” stated Rick Calder, GTT
