Infracom selected an Infinera DTN Digital ROADM network for the scalability, speed, and flexibility of Infinera’s Digital Optical Networks architecture. With the Infinera DTN network, Infracom can deliver services from 1 Gigabit/second (Gb/s) to 40Gb/s today and 100Gb/s in the future in a matter of days, instead of the weeks or months typically required by traditional DWDM systems.
