SECOM deploys Infinera in southeastern Colorado

SECOM, a subsidiary of Southeast Colorado Power Association (SECPA), is modernizing its middle-mile and business Ethernet access network using Infinera’s XTM Series optical transport solution. The network upgrade is set to support the bandwidth growth of large enterprises and industrial parks while providing the flexibility, reliability, and reach needed to close the digital divide in the region.

Key Points:

  • The fiber network spans around 2,000 miles throughout southeastern Colorado.
  • Infinera’s XTM Series will enable multi-gigabit Ethernet services and 100G/400G broadband transport.
  • The upgrade enhances connectivity for homes, schools, libraries, government entities, telecoms, and businesses.
  • The modernization aims to close the digital divide and maximize economic and social development opportunities.
  • The XTM Series provides a temperature-hardened and low-latency packet optical middle-mile network suitable for various traffic types and demanding environments. 
  • Infinera worked with its partner World Wide Technology (WWT) on the network design and deployment for SECOM.
