P&TLuxembourg Activates 100G with Alcatel-Lucent

P&TLuxembourg has activated a 100 Gbps IP between Frankfurt and Luxembourg, enabling very high-bandwidth, low latency, secure and reliable data services to the financial sector, European institutions and organizations as well as to all businesses and consumers throughout the country. Alcatel-Lucent has provided P&TLuxembourg with its Converged Backbone Transformation (CBT) solution, a distinctive combination of IP and optical technologies that will help the operator to improve the performance, reliability and operational efficiency of its network, while reducing costs. The deployment includes the Alcatel-Lucent 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) with 100G optical coherent technology and the Alcatel-Lucent 7750 Service Router (SR) with 100G Ethernet (100GE) interfaces. http://www.alcatel-lucent.com
