A1 and Nokia deliver 800Gbps service transmission over 1276km across Europe on a single wavelength.
Trial is A1's first demonstration of an 800Gbps service on single wavelength operating over a long-haul network. Achievement will help the operator meet increasing demand of its wholesale customers.
A1 can reach higher bandwidth and energy efficiency and lower costs based on Nokia IP and optical chipset performance.
“We are committed to investing in our digital infrastructure and driving digitalization across Europe, and the success of this trial is a testament to the hard work delivered by our teams and by our trusted partner – Nokia. It’s a remarkable achievement that will not only allow us to lower costs per bit but will also provide the much-needed high-speed connectivity to our wholesale customers in 2024 and beyond.”
