Case Study: Leading Service Provider achieves scalable, efficient edge network growth with Ciena Coherent Routing

Deliver high capacity at the edge for business services, mobile 4G/5G, and residential access

Leading Service Provider needed to increase broadband speed and performance while supporting rising bandwidth demands across residential, business, and mobile services. Ciena addressed this challenge with its Coherent Routing solution, combining coherent routers, 100/200/400G pluggable optics, and a self-configurable photonic underlay to help the customer deliver more capacity closer to the network edge.

With Ciena’s multi-layer management software, MCP, the service provider can scale and manage a converged aggregation network more efficiently across IP and optical layers. The solution enables flexible service aggregation, rapid network expansion, and support for SLAs across leased lines, mobile backhaul, residential broadband, and 4G/5G services, delivering faster, simpler scaling and better investment planning, though the case study does not provide specific numeric results.
