Leveraging stc Group\u2019s live Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) terrestrial network, this innovative trial highlights the unique potential of Nokia\u2019s sixth generation of super-coherent Photonic Service Engine (PSE-6s) technology in delivering high-capacity, efficient, and scalable connectivity for data centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the ability to significantly increase the capacity of the digital network, stc Group and Nokia are enabling faster and more efficient data transmission over long distances. With this advanced optical infrastructure, stc Group is well-positioned to meet future market demands and continue its supply of rapid and reliable connectivity while aligning with Saudi Vision 2030\u2019s digital transformation goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The field trial transported 6 x 100GE and 1 x 400GE high-speed services over 1Tbs single wavelength across 850km, demonstrating the trusted performance and seamless integration of Nokia\u2019s Data Center Interconnect (DCI) DWDM solution into stc Group\u2019s data center environments. Designed to seamlessly fit into the data center with advanced energy efficiency, the solution addresses the dynamic needs of AI\/cloud services transport and will offer consumers across the kingdom improved network efficiency and performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nokia and stc Group\u2019s collaboration sets a new benchmark for data center interconnectivity across the MEA region, in line with the kingdom\u2019s wider digital transformation journey. With ambitions to enhance Saudi Arabia&#8217;s digital infrastructure, expand 5G coverage, and promote cloud computing adoption among other Vision 2030 goals, this collaboration is laying the groundwork for future-ready network infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Abdullateef Alsenan, Infrastructure Design GM at stc Group, said:&nbsp;\u201cstc Group\u2019s partnership with Nokia demonstrates our advancements in building a future-ready network. This milestone reflects our ability to securely support massive traffic volumes, addressing the demands of cloud services and AI applications, ultimately supporting the Kingdom\u2019s Vision 2030 objectives. These infrastructure advancements are positioning the kingdom as a global leader in digital innovation and sustainability.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carlo Corti, Head of Optical Networks, Middle East and Africa at Nokia, said:&nbsp;\u201cBy pushing the boundaries of optical technology, Nokia is committed to trusted performance and proud to partner with stc Group in achieving this record-breaking milestone. Our Data Center Interconnect solution provides scalable, energy-efficient, resilient, and secure infrastructure to support Saudi Arabia\u2019s ambitious digital transformation journey.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nokia and stc Group successfully conducted the MEA region\u2019s first-ever 1Tbps long haul field trial using Nokia&#8217;s PSE-6s technology and stc Group\u2019s digital expertise.
