Infinera announced that Softdados deployed Infinera’s GX Series Compact Modular Platform and XTM Series across its metro and long-haul networks to increase network capacity to meet the growing needs of internet service providers (ISPs) in Brazil. Infinera’s solutions enable Softdados – a company of Softcomp Conectividade Group – to significantly enhance the capabilities of its network and offer customers a variety of high-capacity internet services with agility and security. Partnering with Infinera enables Softdados to future-proof its network with a seamless upgrade path to Infinera’s 800G Infinite Capacity Engine technology. Softdados operates a long-haul and metro network in Brazil for a range of enterprise and ISP customers. Softdados experienced a surge in bandwidth demand from its customers, due to the coronavirus pandemic, driving the need to accelerate its network capacity with Infinera’s GX platform. Infinera’s GX Series is highly scalable, easy to operate, and enabled Softdados to modernize its long-haul network infrastructure quickly to deliver high optical performance on demand. In the metro network, Softdados leveraged Infinera’s XTM Series to benefit from a scalable metro access and aggregation solution that seamlessly integrates its Layer 1 and Layer 2 services. Infinera worked closely with its local partner Arsitec to offer a best-in-class solution to fit Softdados’s needs.
