Kuwait City, Kuwait. July 11, 2019. ADVA (FSE: ADV) today announced that BOnline, a leading internet service provider in the Middle East, has deployed its FSP 3000 in a high-availability, future-proof network. Delivering high-capacity connectivity to enterprises, government institutions and finance companies throughout Kuwait, the new metro and backbone infrastructure features 100Gbit/s capabilities. ADVA’s solution supports a seamless transition from BOnline’s legacy technology. With its modular design, it also ensures massive scalability, enabling the service provider to easily expand and evolve its offerings. ADVA’s team will also provide BOnline with ongoing maintenance and continuous onsite support.

The solution has a backbone capable of 100Gbit/s and will be used to deliver Gigabit Ethernet and MPLS services for national and international customers including businesses, banks and government security institutions. The ADVA FSP 3000 provides easy interoperability with BOnline’s deployed equipment, protecting its investments and bridging the gap to next-generation technology. Supporting both 10Gbit/s and 100Gbit/s, the 9RU FSP 3000 offers award-winning energy efficiency. And with its pay-as-you-grow modular architecture it provides ultimate flexibility for future growth.
