To accommodate the growth of cloud-based data operators and connect the increasing number of data centres managed by service and content providers, Telstra today launched new 100 gigabits per second (100G Wavelength) connectivity across multiple ultra-long haul submarine cable routes globally.<\/p>\n
Darrin Webb, Chief Operating Officer, Telstra Global Enterprise & Services, said Telstra\u2019s 100G Wavelength service was designed to scale smartly and would also help deliver the connectivity and capacity needed to support market demand for larger bandwidth applications, including High Definition video services and emerging Ultra High Definition Television. <\/p>\n
\u201cAs the volume of data generated and consumed worldwide continues to increase exponentially, it\u2019s critical the infrastructure responsible for delivering it can cater to this need. Our job, as a trusted network partner, is to adapt and ensure there is capacity where it is required most by our customers.<\/p>\n
\u201cHowever the move to 100G is much more than just raw capacity. Alongside enhanced efficiency, 100G can help customers reduce operational expenditure and simplify network maintenance thanks to the service\u2019s ability to consolidate bandwidths. It is also flexible enough to meet the requirements of most cable companies by offering landing station and point of presence options too.\u201d<\/p>\n
Delivered via Telstra\u2019s Asia America Gateway (AAG Dedicated Fiber Pair), Reach North Asia Loop (RNAL), Telstra Endeavour, Australia-Japan Cable (AJC) and UNITY cable systems, the new 100G Wavelength service will cover Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, Australia and the United States*. <\/p>\n
According to Mr Webb, the launch is just one of many projects Telstra is working on to ensure its network infrastructure is always growing, improving and world-class. <\/p>\n
\u201cThis latest investment means we are well placed to meet the needs of our customers across Asia Pacific and the United States and we\u2019re excited to see them benefit from the increased connectivity. Through this and other investments, our customers can rest assured they have some of the best global telecommunications technology at their fingertips,\u201d Mr Webb concluded. <\/p>\n
