Wavelength Services

Direct answer

A wavelength is a carrier-managed optical channel that provides dedicated high-capacity point-to-point transport without requiring the customer to operate the underlying fiber system.

Managed optical transport

Wavelength services can support data-center interconnection, storage, replication, large data movement and critical core routes. The provider operates the optical platform while the customer receives a defined interface and capacity.

Compare route and protection

Ask whether the service is protected or unprotected, how protection affects route and latency, where regeneration occurs and which facilities or conduit are shared with other services.

Plan capacity growth

Confirm available interface speeds, upgrade options, equipment lead times and whether additional wavelengths can follow the same or a diverse path as demand grows.
