To increase the optical network coverage of Lightstorm in India's Eastern and Northern regions, Nokia has established a cooperation with the latter. In accordance with the cooperation, Nokia will provide Lightstorm with the most recent wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) optical network solutions, as well as consultancy and integration services to assist in the deployment of Nokia's most recent C+L band WDM optical line system solutions. In the event of numerous fibre cuts, these technologies include protection features to ensure network resilience.
 
Lightstorm delivers next-generation network architecture for enterprise customers with reduced latency, 100% uptime, and full end-to-end control and administration capabilities. Lightstorm is a provider of carrier-neutral digital infrastructure to enterprise customers. As it extends its coverage east and north across wide swaths of India, Lightstorm is extending its current relationship with Nokia.
 
Nokia's 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) optical transport platform, which includes its fifth-generation coherent optic chipset, will be used by Lightstorm's expanded network to increase total capacity to several terabytes.
 
With this considerable increase, Lightstorm will be able to serve its current customers in a larger capacity and welcome new clients with a much higher standard of advantages. In addition, Nokia's sixth-generation PSE-6 is future-proofed for the 1830 PSS, which will be crucial as capacity demands rise.
 
According to the statement, "Nokia's DWDM products offer high capacity and automation to enable cutting-edge digital services for enterprise customers across India."
 
"Lightstorm's partnership with Nokia will help the company achieve its goals of rapid network route expansion with the benefit of added capacity."
 
The collaboration between Nokia and Lightstorm underscores Nokia's commitment to advancing the Digital India goal and represents a significant advancement in the extension of optical network coverage in India.
