Lucent Technologies Announces New Product That Brings 10-Gigabit Networking Directly To Local ISP Networks
-Introduces Industry's Most Complete OC-192/STM-64 Optical Networking Portfolio
-Customers Include BT, Beijing Telecommunications Administration, Tele1 of Sweden and UPC of the Netherlands

February 23, 2000 05:00 AM

MURRAY HILL, N.J., Feb 23. /PRNewswire/ -- Addressing the high-growth optical networking market, Lucent Technologies (LU) today announced the industry's first high-speed optical networking system capable of bringing 10-gigabit (OC-192/STM-64) networking capacity directly to local Internet Service Providers (ISP) networks. This will enable carriers to build local data networks that are four times faster than today -- while providing up to 60 percent cost savings.

Designed by Bell Labs, Lucent's new WaveStar(TM) DataExpress 10G is optimized to carry IP traffic and enables emerging carriers and ISPs to build highly reliable, local and regional data networks operating at speeds of 10 gigabits per second (Gb/s). That's the equivalent of transmitting a 2 million-page document every second.

Metromedia Fiber Network (MFNX) will be first to test this new system.
