Nokia to upgrade communications network of Spain's Red Electrica

Tuesday 6 July 2021 | 09:49 CET | News
Nokia announced a contract to modernise the communications networks of Spain's national grid operator Red Electrica (REE), owner of dark fibre provider Reintel and satellite operator Hispasat. Under the deal Nokia will provide REE with an IP/MPLS network and DWDM (Dense Wave-Division Multiplexing) optical transport network. The latter, which replaces a legacy SDH (synchronous digital hierarchy) system, will give REE plenty of room for growth with capacities up to 100 Gbps, said Nokia.
