Azzurri has joined forces with Sorrento Networks to service the UK service provider market for optical transport solutions employing next generation equipment from Sorrento.
The deal means Azzurri customers will be able to source Sorrento Networks solutions, incorporating its CWDM, DWDM and ROADM products.
Key to the partnership is The Comtek Group's acquisition of Sorrento Networks intellectual property rights and trademarks in late 2014.
This acquisition results in new investment in the development, manufacture and support of the Sorrento Networks portfolio, with an ambitious future product roadmap.
Azzurri is reselling Sorrento Networks GigaMux product line, enabling carriers, enterprises and data centre operators to design networks to be scalable and cost effective.
GigaMux supports data encryption, and has low power consumption, which aligns with Comtek's active role in promoting environmental initiatives within the telecoms industry.
"In these days of terrific network expansion and increasing demand for fibre services, this relationship helps us to deliver high capacity services to both our enterprise and our carrier customers," said Rufus Grig, CTO of Azzurri Communications.
