PARIS, April 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- EKINOPS (Euronext
Paris - FR0011466069) (EKI), a leading supplier of optical
transport and enterprise connectivity solutions, today announces it
has been selected by TELUS, a world-leading communications and
information technology company, to deploy network function
virtualization (NFV) and next-generation software-defined network
(SDN) capabilities to enhance its award-winning network.
TELUS chose the OneAccess-branded ONE2501, which delivers a
"one-box-fits-all" approach. The ONE2501 is based on OneOS6, the
modular software solution enabling a full range of built-in
software services that can be activated remotely and on-demand,
equipping TELUS with a SD-WAN-ready, carrier-grade and
multi-service business data router. The compact and power-efficient
design of the ONE2501 also reduces TELUS' environmental footprint
in the delivery of its enterprise services.
"Our work with TELUS illustrates Ekinops' value to service
providers in giving them both freedom and control, together with a
host of cost savings and operational efficiency
gains," commented Kevin
Antill, Ekinops' group vice president of sales for
North America. "We are
extremely pleased to be working alongside this major tier one
operator in North
America."
"Delivering the connectivity and quality network experience
our customers have come to expect requires a SDN strategy that
implements access and optical products that are both interoperable
and open," said Walter
Miron, Director, Technology Strategy, SDN and Business
Solutions DevOps at TELUS. "Ekinops' collaboration and
versatility allows us to enhance our networks in an innovative and
scalable way that reduces our environmental footprint and scales
our total cost of ownership."
