MCI to Deploy Movaz Optical Gear across its Global Network

MCI awarded a multi-year Global Master Purchase Agreement covering the rapid deployment of Movaz Networks' next generation optical transport solutions across its global network. Financial terms were not disclosed.


Movaz Networks' optical portfolio consists of the RAYstar, an integrated wavelength transport and switching platform, the RAYexpress flexible OADM which can be configured in both DWDM and CWDM configurations, and the RAYextender amplifier family for regional multi-span all optical reach. Software intelligence is provided through a fully integrated GMPLS optical control plane, supporting automated path setup and dynamic reconfiguration, as well as a graphical management system, the RAYtracer.


MCI began field deployment of the Movaz RAY product suite in 2002 and is already carrying live traffic in major metropolitan regions for a variety of applications including carrier-to-carrier, enterprise and core infrastructure applications. http://www.movaz.com
