Bhutan Telecom is deploying Ciena’s coherent routing solutions to support booming traffic demands.
With Ciena’s 5164, 8110 and 8114 routers, Bhutan Telecom expects to improve the customer experience especially as its customers move towards new technologies like edge cloud applications.
“Post pandemic, the local community continues to work, play and leverage digital content in the comfort of their homes,” said Karma Tshewang, technical director at Bhutan Telecom.
“We’re also seeing renewed interest from connected tourists to the world’s happiest country,” he said. “Hyperconnectivity is set to be a game-changer in helping transform Bhutan into a digital society and we’re working with Ciena to improve connectivity and reduce latency.”
Developed specifically for space-constrained locations, Ciena’s 5164 Router is suitable for landlocked Bhutan, as well as Ciena’s temperature-hardened 8114 Router.
In addition, with the 8110 Coherent Aggregation Router, Bhutan Telecom can help with reducing network latency, improving the quality of experience for users.
“Market dynamics are accelerating the push for cloud, and residential connectivity that together drive the need to leverage IP network modernization to capitalize on these new opportunities,” said Amit Malik, VP and sales leader at Ciena India & South Asia.
