Liberty Networks deploys Infinera’s ICE6 800G on Florida routes

Liberty Networks is using Infinera’s ICE6 800G coherent solution to upgrade and expand the capacity of its Florida Transport Network (FTN). This network enhancement enables Liberty Networks to offer new and efficient high-speed 400 GbE client services to its end-user customers.

Infinera said its ICE6 technology will also provide Liberty Networks with C+L-band capabilities, enabling Liberty Networks to increase its initial design capacity, offering an extremely scalable and robust network.

A longtime Infinera customer, Liberty Networks owns and operates the largest state-of-the-art subsea multi-ring fiber optic network in Latin America and the Caribbean, with nearly 50,000 kilometers. Coupled with its 17,000 kilometers of terrestrial fiber, Liberty Networks connects approximately 40 countries. The upgrade with Infinera’s industry leading ICE6 technology enables Liberty Networks to provide consumers, businesses, and wholesale operators with faster speed, more capacity, and innovative products and services.

“Liberty Networks’ selection of ICE6 will lay the foundation for upgrading its entire Latin American and Caribbean networks to meet growing customer demand and expectations,” said Nick Walden, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales at Infinera. “Infinera is proud to be a longstanding partner and the go-to solution for Liberty Networks, giving them a competitive advantage in this rapidly evolving industry.”
