Sogetel deploys Transmode for major network expansion
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Stockholm, Sweden - 12(th) August 2015 - Transmode, a global supplier of packet-
optical networking solutions, today announced that the Canadian operator Sogetel
has deployed Transmode to extend its optical network infrastructure to enhance
both reach and performance across Quebec. The new network delivers greater speed
and capacity for Sogetel's metro networks in over 20 cities in the province,
including Montreal and Quebec City.
Sogetel is one of the largest independent incumbent telecommunications companies
in Canada. It offers a full range of services including telephony, television,
internet, cloud services and mobile. When Sogetel decided to make a major
infrastructure investment to upgrade its capacity, it turned to Transmode based
on the previous excellent working relationship with local partner Sak Data and
Transmode.
The new packet optical system deployed by Sogetel is based on Transmode's TM-
Series and significantly increases capacity across the region-wide network. The
network was preconfigured at Transmode's headquarters in Stockholm then
transported and installed in only two weeks by Transmode's engineers and Sak
Data. The installation was achieved without any interruption to ongoing
services.
The new infrastructure can easily be migrated to integrated Layer 2 packet-
optical, 100G or greater and ROADMs at a later date within the same chassis,
giving Sogetel a fully-scalable and flexible network to match growing customer
demand. Data Center Interconnect and Business Ethernet access are rapidly
growing in Quebec and Sogetel can now offer expanded solutions to meet those
needs with Transmode's solutions. Sogetel was already a customer of Transmode's
and the flexibility of the previous TS-Series network allowed an easy upgrade
path to the new TM-Series based network.
Isis Thiago de Souza, VP Technology and Business Development at Sogetel,
commented, "We are delighted to have been able to upgrade our network so easily.
Our engineers were trained on site in Canada in just two weeks by the team from
Transmode and Sak Data. The smooth transition meant no interruptions to our
customers' business and now we are able to increase capacity and service
flexibility as they require."
Björn Andersson, Transmode's Vice President Sales North America, commented, "In
winning this important network expansion project, Transmode has once again able
to demonstrate a cost-effective upgrade path based on the modular flexibility of
our systems. Sogetel has expanded the capabilities of its network at a lower
cost than undertaking a complete network replacement, keeping its capital
expenditure to a minimum while improving performance and efficiency."
