Telefonica Moviles Mexico's metro networks go 100 Gbps via ZTE
ZTE Corp. (0763.HK / 000063.SZ) announced last week it has successfully deployed 100-Gbps Optical Transport Network (OTN) technology for Telefonica Moviles Mexico (TMM). The 100G OTN platforms have been deployed in six sites in the capital of the Mexican state of Queretaro.
Telefonica Moviles Mexico is the second largest mobile operator in Mexico and a unit of Telefonica. The operator required an upgrade of its 10-Gbps metro networks as it deployed LTE, ZTE says.
ZTE delivered the 100-Gbps via its ZXMP M920 optical transport platform alongside the company's CX31 cross sub-rack. The ZXMP M920 accepts a variety of service boards to multiple service types, including STM-N, Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, and Fibre Channel (FC). ZTE asserts the system's 2.8-Tbps capacity will meet TMM's LTE service bandwidth demands over the next three years.
