SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Infinera, provider of Intelligent Transport Networks, announced that Aloo Telecom (Aloo), one of the largest telecommunications groups in Brazil, deployed the Infinera Cloud Xpress and Infinera DTN-X to address increasing bandwidth demand on its long-haul and data center interconnect networks. Aloo serves more than 3,000 private and public-sector clients including cloud operators, internet content providers and service providers across 14 Brazilian states.

“Aloo's commitment to bring scalable bandwidth across Brazil aligns with our goal to bring easy-to-deploy, terabit-scale networks to all of Latin America,” said Bob Jandro, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales at Infinera. “We are honored help Aloo as they expand their network.”
