OREANDA-NEWS. January 10, 2012. Mobile services operator life:) has completed Next Generation Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (NG-WDM) project, which was implemented in cooperation with the Huawei company, world leader in the sphere of new generation ICT-solutions development. Due to the modernization and the expansion of DWDM network life:) has increased network access and data transfer rate.

Within the framework of this project life:) has extended its DWDM network backbone built 4 years ago at the regional level. The network is deployed on innovative NG-WDM platform Huawei OSN8800, which is based on the latest solutions for optical technologies. The modernization will allow the company to guarantee more efficient provision of the services with dedicated bandwidth and at affordable price, supporting high level of SLA and security of IP/Ethernet services.

Murat Cinar, Deputy General Director - Mobile Network of life:) said: “We continue to develop our network and to implement the latest telecommunication equipment. life:) has been exploiting  DWDM technology since 2008. This year we have expanded and updated our DWDM network, and that allowed us to meet the demand for growing traffic. We also prepare our traffic network for further implementation of high-speed access technologies. Moreover, the extension provides us with additional capacity, which can be leased to our partners throughout Ukraine.”

"We create the solutions for the core networks helping our clients to achieve business success", Executive Director of Ukraine Representative office Mr. Zheng Xin said, "Huawei's technology and solutions will help life:) to upgrade their network to the next generation optical transport platform, it can cost-effectively deliver Huawei innovative services to meet the growing demands of life:) business and residential customers".

DWDM equipment supports 80 channels with up to 100 Gbps capacity on each wavelength.  OSN8800 platform is a flexible and manageable NG-WDM transport platform, which combines such technologies as Wavelength Division Multiplexing, Optical Transport Networking, Reconfigurable Optical Add Drop Multiplexing, Terabit commutation capacity, 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps speed and powerful operation, administration and maintenance system. Because of this platform life:) will increase its transport network flexibility and commercial efficiency.
