Business Wire
Cyan (NYSE: CYNI), a leading provider of SDN, NFV, and
packet-optical solutions for network operators, today announced it
has been selected to provide the Z-Series Packet-Optical Transport
Platforms (P-OTPs) for Australia and New Zealand-based
telecommunications provider Kordia. The new software-defined
packet-optical network will provide Kordia with an efficient and
scalable foundation to help drive new revenue-creating services and
deliver increased domestic capacity for Internet Service Providers
(ISPs), integrators, and large enterprises.
“Cyan’s technology allows us to not just lower costs in the
network by connecting customers directly to the core – thus
reducing the number of router ports required – but also provides a
single platform from which we can drive new services across
multiple layers,” said Aaron Olphert, CTO, Kordia. “Even more
importantly, this deployment meets our primary objective in any
transformation project, which is to deliver an enhanced experience
and more compelling services to our customers.”
Cyan’s Z-Series P-OTP, now deployed with more than 150 customers
worldwide, is a transformative networking platform that fully
integrates multiple networking layers into one system – from the
optical layer, to Ethernet, to MPLS-TP – that is purpose-built for
metro and regional networks. The Z-Series scales services up to
100GbE packet, as well as 100G optical transport, to support varied
applications including Carrier Ethernet 2.0 (CE 2.0) service
delivery, ROADM, router bypass, private metro builds,
wireless backhaul, and more.
“Cyan’s new relationship with Kordia is exciting because it
reinforces important concepts in our business,” said Mike Hatfield,
President, Cyan. “First, Kordia being a significant new customer
based in Australia and New Zealand demonstrates that our strategy
to open up new markets is progressing. Second, this use case
continues to prove that packet-optical systems play a key role in
both reducing costs and creating new business opportunities.”
