Nokia supplies 600G for Cybernet in Pakistan

Cybernet, the leading fixed-line telecommunications provider in Pakistan, has the country’s first DWDM network operating at 600 Gbps per wavelength using equipment from Nokia.. 

By establishing international points of presence (POPs) in MC-1 in Barka (Oman), MRS-2 in Marseille (France), SmartHub in Fujairah (UAE) and SG1 in Singapore, Cybernet is providing its global peering community members with its advanced IXP platform powered by the Nokia 7750 SR and 7250 IXR routers. This platform ensures optimum connection capacity to meet both current and future needs. Cybernet offers Internet, EVPN and MPLS-based services with rich Quality of Service (QoS) at its international POPs.

Cybernet successfully implemented Nokia’s advanced integrated ROADM architecture based on flexgrid technology. Additional software management and control functions from Nokia’s WaveSuite service enablement automation software help Cybernet to further increase operational efficiencies. Broadband and enterprise customers can also benefit from low latency, superior quality of services and an enhanced customer experience.

Maroof Ali Shahani, Chief Operating Officer of Cybernet, said: “Using Nokia’s innovative in-house PSE-Vs chipset with super-coherent optical engines allows us to connect our main sites while also giving us headroom to grow our capacity efficiently and cost-effectively. Through our partnership with Nokia, we can meet our customers’ increasing demand for the best connectivity services while also enabling them to benefit from the latest innovations within optical technology.”
