Ciena® Corporation (NASDAQ: CIEN), the network specialist, today
announced that FORATEC, a leading Russian telecommunication
operator, chose the CN 4200® FlexSelect® Advanced Services Platform
for an optical transport network build-out in the country’s Urals
region. The newly deployed network was implemented by Ciena in
partnership with Jet Infosystems, one of the major systems
integrators in Russia and the CIS region and recent member of
Ciena’s BizConnect global partner program.
FORATEC‘s extensive optical network covers Russia’s Urals
Federal District and offers a comprehensive range of
telecommunication services – including traditional telephony, Voice
over IP (VoIP), broadband services, data center connectivity and
others – to consumers and businesses alike. In order to increase
network capacity and enhance service performance for its customers,
the operator selected Ciena and Jet Infosystems to extend its
network an additional 150 km between the south Russian cities of
Yekaterinburg and Nizhniy Tagil while creating a flexible
foundation for the delivery of advanced services and applications.
The new deployment is based on Ciena’s CN 4200, equipped with
software-programmable interface modules to support multiple
services on a single wavelength and remote configurability for
greater transport efficiency as service demands evolve over
time.
“This network upgrade project was an important step for FORATEC,
as we’ve implemented a solid foundation for the delivery of
next-generation services and applications,” said Natalia Volkova,
CTO at FORATEC. “With the help of Ciena and Jet Infosystems, we
have improved the functionality of the network and created a
resilient infrastructure with complete reconfigurablity that allows
us to adapt as our business needs evolve.”
“Our joint project with FORATEC is a great example of the
continued success of our transport portfolio in Europe,” said
Sergei Fishkin, regional managing director for Russia, CIS and the
Baltic states at Ciena. “We continue to team with leading partners
worldwide that have the necessary practical experience in network
design and service capabilities that Ciena’s discerning customers
expect. Jet Infosystems is precisely that kind of partner for our
Russian operation.”
“Building a flexible network infrastructure that can grow
organically as needs evolve is an imperative for network operators
as they consistently seek out cost-efficiencies in their business
while remaining competitive in the marketplace,” added Alexey
Dogaev, head of networking solutions development center at Jet
Infosystems. “Our new partnership with Ciena enhances our ability
to deliver on those requirements for our customers in the
region.”
More than 200 organizations around the world, including leading
service providers, enterprises, government agencies and research
and education networks, utilize Ciena’s CN 4200 platform for its
flexibility, ease of deployment and significant capital and
operational savings.
