Lightpath has deployed Ciena’s WaveLogic 5 extreme solution, delivering services at up to 800Gbps. With this deployment, Lightpath is able to provide superior digital experiences for its customers throughout the greater New York City metropolitan area and expand its footprint into the greater Boston market.

Phil Olivero, CTO, Lightpath, said: “In order for our customers to execute on their own digital innovations, we need to provide them with fast and reliable connectivity. With Ciena’s solutions, our customers in the New York and Boston metro areas will now experience next-level digital services with high bandwidth and minimal latency.”

Lightpath is also deploying Ciena’s Waveserver AI compact interconnect platform over a 6500 RLS flexible grid reconfigurable optical layer for a more open, scalable and programmable network to meet increased customer demands. Using Ciena’s coherent optical solution, Lightpath’s network becomes more adaptive, allowing it to respond quickly to everchanging bandwidth demands while maximizing operational efficiencies, providing customers with more reliable, high-speed services.

Customers will benefit from Lightpath’s ability to offer custom designed optical services that are optimized for direct throughput, lower latency and higher reliability. The Lightpath network will also offer to customers industry-best services, including optical transport up to 800 Gbps.
