White Rock Supplies Next Gen Optical Transport for Telepak

Telepak Networks, a network service provider based in Mississippi, selected White Rock Networks to supply its VLX2020 Next Generation SONET and VLX1010 DWDM systems. The equipment is being used for a two-state expansion of Telepak's backbone transport network. The initial network, which spans over 500 miles, is a multi-wavelength design utilizing White Rock's VLX2020 OC-48/192 SONET add-drop multiplexer (configured with fully-tunable OC-192 optics), as well as White Rock's VLX1010 DWDM system. In order to meet the extended span distances, White Rock also supplied intelligent optical amplifiers as part of the overall solution. All elements of the network will be managed by White Rock's VLXpert Element Management System. Financial terms were not disclosed. http://www.whiterock.comhttp://www.telepaknetworks.com
