JUNE 8, 2010 -- Neo Telecoms, an international service provider specializing in high-bandwidth telecom services, has chosen Ekinops to provide infrastructure and customer premises equipment for metro Ethernet service delivery.
Ekinops will provide its flagship optical transport platform, the Ekinops 360, to enable Neo Telecoms to connect its 15 data centers and to deliver high-bandwidth Ethernet services to its end customers. The Ekinops multi-protocol, multi-rate add/drop multiplexer is designed to deliver of any mix of services over optical transport with a single wavelength and fewer line cards than traditional transport systems. The flexibility of the Ekinops 360 will enable Neo to deploy Ethernet services today and other service types like uncompressed video and Fibre Channel in the future on the same wavelength, using the same line cards, according to Ekinops.
“For four months, we conducted a meticulous selection of the different solutions available on the market,” declared Didier Soucheyre, CEO of Neo Telecoms. “The Ekinops 360 platform was truly open, flexible, and innovative at the service level, and enabled a rapid implementation. We required a multiprotocol platform that supports data, Fibre Channel, and video, and the Ekinops 360 does that effectively.”
The Ekinops 360 platform is now operational for Neo Telecoms in several European cities, and Neo will continue to leverage the equipment when the company will launch new network services in 2010.
