Havfrue, Bulk Fiber Networks’ First Submarine Cable

• Bulk Fiber Networks is enhancing its Havfrue submarine cable system with network infrastructure from Ciena. The capacity of the 7,851km transatlantic cable system is 1,000 times greater than the most recent cable on this route across the Atlantic. Havfrue establishes a new route between the USA, Denmark, Ireland, and Norway, while delivering high capacity and scalable spectrum services.

• The Nordic region has become a key strategic location for many major ISPs, webscalers, and wholesale operators. The new Bulk Fiber Networks submarine cable system offers network resiliency and low operational costs, while bringing sustainable infrastructure to a global audience.

Ciena’s Spectrum Sharing submarine network infrastructure will enable Bulk Fiber Networks to provide tailored virtual fiber pairs to individual customers while delivering significant flexibility and agility. Bulk Fiber Networks can adapt its network as connectivity demands change by using Ciena’s GeoMesh Extreme submarine network solution that leverages Ciena’s 6500 Submarine Line Terminating Equipment.

• “Deploying Ciena and rolling out our Managed Spectrum offering is helping us enhance our Nordic fiber infrastructure and meet large-scale data transport needs now and for the future. The Havfrue is the first direct link between the Nordics and USA in 20 years and the first ever to directly connect USA with Norway. We are ready to deliver services to existing and new customers, who are some of the most advanced customers in the world.”, said Peder Naerboe, Founder and Chairman, Bulk Fiber Networks.
