Troy Cablevision Picks Optelian Optical Gear

May 16, 2013 |
MARIETTA, Ga. -- Optical networking specialist Optelian announces Troy Cablevison, Inc. ("Troy Cable") has successfully deployed Optelian's MPX-9110 Flexible 100 Gbps Platform in its network. The low-latency 100G architecture is deployed across Optelian's LightGAIN optical transport and Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) infrastructure.

Covering a six-county area that spans the entire southeastern region of Alabama, the Troy Cable network delivers high-capacity fiber-optic transport from the cities of Montgomery to Troy to Dothan, and all markets in between. The build-out was made possible through the Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP) via the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.

With Optelian's solution in place, Troy Cable is able to quickly turn-up services across its Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) and Business (FTTB) infrastructure. In an area of the state where only limited low-bandwidth network options were once available, the advanced Troy Cable network delivers a high-capacity solution to schools, universities, banks, hospitals, healthcare organizations and government and military installations. These industries and others continue to experience fast-growing demand for bandwidth.

With Troy Cable's new 100G-ready network in place, customers now have options for alternate disaster recovery, scalable off-site storage and the possibility of diverse network paths that didn't exist before. Optelian has enabled Troy Cable to deliver a 10-fold increase in capacity for customers of its triple play services (data, voice and video). Offering 2.5G, 10G and now 100G wavelengths, Troy Cable now enjoys a solution that enables service providers to offer up to 10 full-rate 10G services on a 100G wavelength to accommodate expected future demand.
