CORPORATE NEWS:

To meet massive increase in demand for ADSL services

Delivering a range of solutions based on purpose-built technology that supports the complex scale and performance requirements of the world’s largest and most demanding networks, Juniper Networks Inc., USA, announced that Zen Internet, a UK-based Internet service provider, has selected Juniper Networks M- and T-series routers to increase its bandwidth capacity in-line with escalating demands from customers for its ADSL products and services. In addition to multiple T320 routing platforms, Zen Internet has deployed Juniper Networks M10 routers in Rochdale and in London, enabling it to maximise bandwidth allocation at the edge, as well as the core of its network. As a result, Zen Internet will be looking to create and deploy new services for its small- and medium-sized business customers. It will also be able to offer a more flexible range of access speeds by introducing allocated dedicated capacity to customers.

“There were two key factors in our decision to work with Juniper Networks at both the core and edge of our network”, commented Mr Ian Buckley, marketing manager at Zen Internet. “First, the Juniper Networks platforms are extremely reliable, therefore ensuring quality of service for our customers. Secondly, the port density of the M10 and the scalability of the T320 routing platforms mean we can keep capital investment to a minimum while ensuring maximum return. The phenomenal growth in bandwidth, driven by the demand for our ADSL products had meant we were close to exceeding the routing capacity of our existing core network. We are confident that with the scalable routing solutions from Juniper Networks we have a solid solution to address this problem.” Zen Internet selected the Juniper Networks T320 as its core routing platform because of its high-performance in a small form factor. The T320 also offers the capacity to support low-speed OC-3/STM-1 interfaces up to 10Gbit/s configurations and the ability to handle STM16, STM64 and 10 Gigabit-Ethernet ports routing IP traffic at wire speed.
