“ DC BLOX has worked with Ciena as a partner since our company’ s founding,” Jeff explains.“ Our vision from the beginning was to ensure that carriergrade, resilient connectivity services were a key part of the value proposition that we offered our customers and Ciena has been a fantastic partner in helping us to achieve it.
“ Our regional network now connecting five operating data centres is powered by Ciena and they continue to provide us with innovative technology and expert support to help us expand our services to meet the ever-growing demands for higher-bandwidth communications.”
