Network modernization to support digital transformation, emerging 5G applications
WIN Technology, a regional service provider serving the Upper Midwest, is leveraging an Adaptive IP(TM) solution from Ciena (NYSE: CIEN) to power its new network. With growing demand for more services and capacity, the 400G network provides the adaptability and scalability to handle the bandwidth needs and advanced services and applications that are central to today's digital lifestyle.
WIN Technology operates one of the largest networks in the Midwest, spanning 15,000 miles and serving a diverse customer base encompassing small and medium businesses (SMBs) and large enterprises. Industries ranging from healthcare, education, and manufacturing to finance and technology rely on WIN Technology for network, data center and cloud, and IT solutions.
"How we live and conduct business is changing, and networks must evolve to efficiently handle the rigorous demands of remote work, high-def video streaming, the Internet of Things, and more," said
WIN Technology is deploying Ciena's Adaptive IP solution, including the 5171 router and 8180 coherent networking platform, to increase network capacity, assure high network performance, and more quickly roll out new layer 2/layer 3 services. The network provider is also using Ciena's Manage, Control and Plan (MCP) domain controller and Adaptive IP Apps for automated traffic engineering, as well as network and service monitoring, to simplify operations through software control and gain visibility into how the network is performing at all times. With advanced visualization and real-time analysis capabilities, WIN Technology is able to dramatically reduce the time required to diagnose and resolve any issues that arise.
"Many of WIN Technology's customers, but especially those in finance and healthcare, need high availability and service assurance," said
WIN Technology is part of the Ciena Partner Network, which provides access to tools, content, and programs that help accelerate growth amid changing market and technology conditions.
