Ciena’s WaveLogic 6 Extreme Powers 1 Tb/s Milestone on Indonesia’s Key Submarine Network
Landmark Subsea Upgrade: 1 Tb/s Channels Now Live on Batam-Jakarta Route
Matrix NAP Info, a collaboration between Matrix Networks and PT NAP Info Lintas Nusa, has activated Ciena’s (NYSE:CIEN) advanced GeoMesh Extreme solution—featuring the industry-leading WaveLogic 6 Extreme (WL6e) optics—across the Batam-Jakarta segment of the Matrix Cable System. This positions the company among the first in Asia-Pacific to achieve full commercial service at 1 terabit per second (Tb/s) per wavelength over in-service subsea infrastructure.
Spectral Efficiency Hits New Highs With WaveLogic 6 Extreme
The deployment leverages the most spectrally efficient coherent optics available, allowing Matrix NAP Info to maximize bandwidth over existing fiber cables. By pushing more data through each hertz of spectrum, the upgrade delivers not just higher capacity but better utilization of legacy investments—avoiding the costs and environmental impact of new cable construction.
