The US may still be holding its breath, but the rest of the world is at least still going through the motions. Here are two vendor wins, one NNI, and a traffic milestone:
Ciena has picked up some subsea business over in APAC. Their GeoMesh Extreme gear is being deployed by SUB.CO and APX Partners on their Indigo cable system between Sydney, Perth, and Singapore. The upgrade will deliver 500Gbps single-wavelength channel speeds across the system, which consists of two fiber pairs spanning 9,000km. They will also be using Ciena’s hosted MCP software-as-a-service to help run things.
