Ciena transforms global operations with next-generation AT&T SD-WAN infrastructure
Ciena, a global provider of networking systems and software, partnered with AT&T to modernize its infrastructure and support a cloud-first, video-centric workplace. Using AT&T SD-WAN and Dedicated Internet, Ciena replaced legacy MPLS systems across 32 sites in 17 countries, doubling bandwidth, halving latency, and cutting costs by two-thirds. The new setup consolidates network functions, improves agility, and enables faster deployments. With enhanced visibility, analytics, and security, Ciena’s network now supports increased productivity, streamlined operations, and a better customer experience—all while spending less and scaling more efficiently.
