BroadBand Tower chooses Juniper Networks for 5G data centre

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 24 (Bernama) – Japan’s BroadBand Tower has picked Juniper Networks to provide the network architecture for its “Next-Gen 5G data center” in the central Tokyo district of Otemachi.

With this in place, BroadBand Tower will be able to offer data centre services that accommodate the emerging 5G needs of their customers, including the demands for high-volume traffic and speed from major telcos, enterprises and OTTs, all while ensuring consistent high-speed connectivity to the end-user.

Juniper’s MX204 Universal Routing Platform was selected for its ultra-high density and throughout to enable high-speed and uninterrupted network access, while the QFX5200 and QFX5110 Ethernet Switches were deployed to achieve optimal versatility, operability and stability across the network to meet exponentially growing internet traffic and data volume.

“We are pleased to have worked with Juniper Networks right from the start of the network design phase all the way through to implementation,” said BroadBand Tower technical design department system design group and network design group director, Akihiro Mizuochi, in a statement today.

“Through the team’s dedication and commitment, we were able to successfully deploy a network that fit our specifications – one that was operationally simple, fault-tolerant and cost effective,” he added.

“This next-generation communications infrastructure that we’ve developed alongside BroadBand Tower will contribute significantly to the future of Japan’s businesses as they continue to advance into the 5G era,” said Juniper Networks Japan country manager, Tomohiro Furuya.

With the new 5G data centre located in the heart of Japan’s financial and technology hub, BroadBand Tower plans to partner with other data operators housed in the same district to expand its services in the near future.
