05/21/12 -- Pacnet and Infinera (NASDAQ: INFN), today announced the completionof a collaborative effort demonstrating the successful transmissionof more than 3 Tb/s of capacity over 4,500 km of Pacnet's C2Cnetwork. This marks another demonstration that highlightsInfinera's application to Ultra-Long Haul subsea super-channelsbased on Infinera's 500 Gb/s Photonic Integrated Circuittechnology. The testing was conducted with Infinera's DTN-X platform , which has begun shipping this quarter and also demonstrated theability to use FlexCoherent technology to software select themodulation format in order to optimize fiber capacity and reach. Pacnet owns and operates the leading pan-Asian submarine cablenetwork touching 21 cable landing stations and extends from Indiato the U.S. At the heart of this network is EAC-C2C, Asia's leadingstate-of-the-art fiber optic submarine cable network, which spans36,800 km and serves customers globally. "We are impressed with Infinera's DTN-X platform delivering 500Gb/s FlexCoherent super-channels and integrated OTN switchingwithout compromise," said Bill Barney, Pacnet CEO. "Pacnet isdedicated to offering our customers leading-edge communicationsservices across the Pacific Rim. We accomplish this bycollaborating with one of the industry's most innovative suppliersenabling us to build technologically advanced networks globally.This successful test with Infinera demonstrates that Pacnet'snetwork can scale up with the industry's latest high speed opticaltechnologies to deliver faster services to our customers." "Long-haul capable 500Gb/s super-channels are critical for carriernetworks, especially in submarine applications such as Pacnet,"said Tom Fallon, Infinera CEO. "In fact, the real value ofInfinera's DTN-X goes well beyond its sheer size and bandwidthefficiency. The true value is its ability to future proof ourcustomer's most valuable asset, their fiber infrastructure, so theycan continue to flexibly grow their network to accommodate wherevertheir customer demand takes them." Infinera is a pioneer in the field of super-channels embedded withFlexCoherent technology, and the first to demonstratesuper-channels based on 500 Gb/s photonic integrated circuits(PICs). A super-channel is a large unit of optical capacity createdby combining multiple optical carriers into a single managedentity, so that optical networks can scale capacity without scalingoperational cost and complexity. Super-channels based on PICsenable operators to simply provision 500 Gb/s of capacity with asingle operational maneuver; FlexCoherent technology allowsoperators to optimize transmission performance across a range ofapplications using multiple software-programmable modulationformats. The DTN-X also boasts integrated OTN switching withoutcompromise and married with an automated GMPLS control planedelivers Bandwidth Virtualization which ensures that opticalchannels are efficiently utilized and enables service providers torapidly deploy new services. The Infinera product portfolio also includes the DTN platformdesigned for submarine and terrestrial networks, powered by 100Gb/s PICs and designed to scale up to 6.4 Tb/s of transmissioncapacity per fiber; the Infinera ATN, a scalable metro WDMtransport platform; and Infinera Managed Services for globalservice and support.
