VTLWaveNet Upgrades to 100G With Huawei

May 15, 2013 |
LONDON -- Today VTLWaveNet, part of the Viatel Group, and Huawei, a leading global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions provider, announce the completion of phase one of its 100G network upgrade in Europe. The WDM platform is now fully operational for 10G, 40G and 100G services between London and Paris.

Key points-of-presence located in central London and Paris have been equipped with leading Huawei 100G Soft-decision Forward Error Correction (SD FEC) technology to facilitate 100G wavelength services.

The upgrade provides a substantial increase in VTLWaveNet’s network capacity along a heavily populated route. The use of electronic dispersion compensation technology means that VTLWaveNet customers will also benefit from a significant reduction in latency on the London to Paris link. With an operational network already in place, customers will also benefit from reduced lead times on services.
