Japan's Tohoku Electric Power Selects Juniper's IP/MPLS

The Tohoku Electric Power Company of Japan has selected the Juniper Networks M-series routing platform for its corporate network. NEC, a Juniper Networks strategic partner, provided network design and implementation expertise for the project. Financial terms were not disclosed.



Tohoku EPCO's IP/MPLS network links eight sites using Juniper's M-series routers over a transport infrastructure of 2.4 Gbps OC-48 WDM optical rings. The resultant IP/MPLS network is managed by NEC's advanced network management system iNetWorX. The iNetWorX system facilitates administration of MPLS networks, allowing users to fully leverage the traffic engineering and VPN capabilities available on Juniper Networks M-series routers. http://www.juniper.net
