Clouditalia to deploy Coriant mTera Universal Transport Platform for improved cloud services

Dec. 1, 2015
Optical transport systems vendor Coriant says that Clouditalia Telecomunicazioni S.P.A. will deploy its mTera Universal Transport Platform (UTP) in sites across Italy. Use of the optical transmission and switching system will enable Clouditalia to create a service-agnostic architecture that can handle multiple traffic types and speed service delivery, Coriant asserts.

Optical transport systems vendor Coriant says that Clouditalia Telecomunicazioni S.P.A. will deploy its mTera Universal Transport Platform (UTP) in sites across Italy. Use of the optical transmission and switching system will enable Clouditalia to create a service-agnostic architecture that can handle multiple traffic types and speed service delivery, Coriant asserts.

Clouditalia will use the mTera UTP's ROADM and switching capabilities to groom and route a variety of traffic, Coriant says. The operator will be able to efficiently migrate SDH services to Optical Transport Network (OTN) or MPLS-TP, helping to evolve its ROADM-based DWDM network to a service-agnostic architecture.

"As more and more small, medium, and large enterprises throughout Italy rely on cloud services to support their critical business needs, the underlying broadband infrastructure needs to not only scale as traffic demands increase, but also become more adaptable and reliable," said Marco Iannucci, Chief Executive Officer, Clouditalia. "The Coriant mTera®UTP solution enables us to efficiently scale to multi-terabit levels while bringing more dynamic capabilities to our cloud infrastructure network. This powerful combination will help us enhance the highly tailored cloud and data services we offer our customers.”

Deployment of the mTera® UTP complements Clouditalia's use of the Coriant hiT 7300 Multi-Haul Transport Platform, in its 100-Gbps fiber-optic backbone network, a deployment completed in December 2014. The carrier also has deployed the Coriant 7090 Packet Transport Platform (see "Clouditalia improves packet transport with Coriant").
