CIENA Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN), a global provider of intelligent optical networking systems and software, today announced that AT&T has successfully tested, certified and begun deployment of CIENA's MultiWave Metro(TM) intelligent optical transport system.

AT&T provides competitive local services to business customers in 71 major markets nationwide and plans to deploy CIENA's MultiWave Metro platform in a number of those networks to provide up to 24 wavelengths of protected OC-48 or OC-192 capacity per fiber. AT&T already is carrying "live" customer traffic using CIENA systems in its Los Angeles metro network.

"MultiWave Metro provides the capacity and flexibility needed to support the next generation of advanced communications services," said George Gawrys, transport network planning director for AT&T. "CIENA's expertise in optical networking technology will help ensure AT&T's continued delivery of cost-effective and reliable high-speed data services across our metropolitan area networks."
