As mobile data and video services continue to grow, CenturyLink (CenturyTel, Inc.) (NYSE:CTL, news, filings) is keeping up with bandwidth demand through the deployment of 40Gigabit Waves on its existing fiber optic transport network.
With 40G Waves, CenturyLink is equipped to handle the explosive growth in mobile network traffic expected over the next several years. The company, which currently offers 2.5G and 10G Waves, has taken the next step in network bandwidth by transitioning its platform to 40G technology.
“As our customers look to expand their networks to meet the increasing demand for video and advanced business services, CenturyLink is ready to deliver high-bandwidth solutions over our cutting edge transport network,” said Steve Hartman, vice president – sales for CenturyLink Wholesale Services.
