New World Telecommunications (New World Telecom) has selected Juniper Networks new network architecture to provide the foundation for its next-gen of scalable and flexible Metro Ethernet services.

In partnership with service provider technology alliance partner Nokia Siemens Networks, Juniper will enable New World Telecom to meet the expectations of its mobile service providers and business customers while improving the economics of scaling and managing the point-to-point, any-to-any connection network.

New World Telecom’s next-gen of Ethernet-based services is built on the Juniper Networks MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routers powered by the Junos OS, which are being developed to meet customer demand for high-capacity links and to support the requirements of new 4G mobile services.

In addition, the Juniper Networks MX960 and MX480 3D Universal Edge Routers selected by New World Telecom are high-throughput, fully redundant platforms providing high port densities in a compact, energy-efficient form factor.

Juniper’s advanced line modules based on the Junos Trio chipset will also enable New World Telecom to mix-and-match interfaces to create customised, service-specific chassis configurations.

Further, Junos Trio, Juniper Networks’ next-gen silicon technology, will deliver advanced forwarding, queuing, scheduling and services with the capacity to scale beyond 100 Gbps per MX Series slot.

Junos Trio also enhances the MX Series with support for inline services without compromise, allowing customers to add services simply by turning on the service via the Junos OS.

New World Telecom networks and IT executive vice-president Johnny Cheung said backhaul is a very important segment of their Metro Ethernet market and Hong Kong’s mobile operators are already planning their network migration to LTE.

"Our next-gen of Metro Ethernet provides high bandwidth and clocking synchronisation features compliant for LTE build outs, and Juniper’s MX Series proved to be efficient and the highest performing offering optimised to meet our requirements," Cheung said.
