Pacnet has selected Infinera (NASDAQ: INFN) as one of its key suppliers to enable rapid network capacity upgrades across strategic parts of its networks in Asia and US. By deploying Infinera's Digital Optical Networking system to upgrade its backhaul networks and interconnections between its points of presence (PoPs) in these locations, Pacnet has been able to significantly shorten service provisioning times compared to traditional dense-wave-division multiplexing (DWDM) systems. Additionally, Infinera's solution was selected because it satisfied Pacnet's stringent requirements with respect to reliability, GMPLS network intelligence, and scalable DWDM technologies.
