NetCologne Upgrades SDH to GigE with ADVA

NetCologne, a regional German carrier, has deployed ADVA’s Fiber Service Platform (FSP) 1500 system to upgrade its connection to DE-CIX, the central German Internet node in Frankfurt and the third-largest Internet node in Europe. The carrier’s previous SDH link was unable to scale for delivery of Gigabit Ethernet speeds, necessitating a network upgrade. Financial terms were not disclosed. http://www.advaoptical.com
