Ocala Fiber Network in Florida evolved from the City of Ocala electric utility two decades ago. Its purpose: deliver a range of broadband Internet services based on the build-out of a 100 percent fiber network for city agencies as well as citizens. The network was modernized with Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise switches to deliver higher speeds with better network management and performance. And through a global health crisis, OFN proved its value to its customers.

Os switches OmniSwitch formam a parte do cérebro que nos faz trabalhar. Todos os nossos switches ALE são vitais em todas as conexões e na entrega de serviços em nossa rede. A ALE oferece um grande equipamento. Meus engenheiros dizem que gostam da simplicidade e, o mais importante, do suporte que recebem.
Mel Poole, Diretor da Ocala Fiber Network

Desafios

In 1995, Ocala Fiber Network (OFN) expanded its electric utility fiber optic network to become an Internet Service Provider (ISP). With its 100 percent fiber-based backbone, from last mile to the home, OFN set out to provide Internet service to local businesses, schools, homes, hospitals, fire dept and libraries. 25 years later, OFN realized the need for a fresh network design to move away from loop back issues, assure better management, and deliver improved speeds and performance with guaranteed throughputs.
