[Summary]
Here is a thread about all our past operations in Paris.
Hope you enjoy watching how we take care of your Gbps!

We are facing an incident on a 100G linecard on er2.th2 in Telehouse 2 Voltaire. We are hands on deck to get this fixed ASAP.
Please check our Paris Mailing List for further information.

🚀[Backbone Upgrade 1/4]🚀

Two days ago, we put more 400GE in production in our backbone! After a number of tests and preparations in the last months, our two core PoPs (TH2 Léon Frot & Interxion PAR5) are now connected with four 400GE links bundled into two 800Gb/s LAGs!

[Backbone Upgrade 4/4]

This is part of our global effort to move all our backbone to 400GE technologies when possible, for simplicity, performance and cheaper links.

[Backbone Upgrade 3/4]

Not all links require amplification on the ZR part, in this case, one of the two has booster EDFAs and the other is purely passive.
During the migration, we kept the muxponders working in parallel to ensure easy rollback.

Although we do not have any clue about the reliability of the solution, it's cheaper, and with reduced complexity: Go 400G ! #ripe85

[Clément Cavadore  @acontios_net]

Real usage between Interx PAR5 and Data4: 60km !
On lower distances, it's quite cheap actually, compared to muxponder solution !

... then, go 400G ZR with EDFA amplifier !
But its not automagic unfortunately :)

[Clément Cavadore  @acontios_net]

... but it's quite expensive, power hungry, and complex... #RIPE85
Reminds me n*10G times at @ixpfranceix ahah !

.@ixpfranceix uses OTN muxponders in order to light metro dark fibers at N*100G. #RIPE85

[Clément Cavadore  @acontios_net]

now, @tidotu from @ixpfranceix will make a #400G presentation at Connect WG @ripemeeting #ripe85

🚀It's official: France-IX has just connected its 100th 100Gbps port in Paris! What a long way we have come since the first 100Gbps port connected for #OVHcloud Network (@as16276) and the 100th one set up for @SewanGroupe. Thank you all for your trust! #peering #community
