Amplifier spacing has been carefully considered to provide<br/> the customer with the flexibility to choose from a wide range<br/> equipment vendors and technologies and with a view on 40G and 100G<br/> standards. &nbsp;Because the interoute network was deployed as late as 2002,<br/> the dark fibre is the largest pan-european deployment of low PMD fibre<br/> and as such provides great benefit to customers looking to build<br/> networks capable of handling 40Gb and 100Gb services. Further, late<br/> deployed fibre has statistically better attenuation figures as it has<br/> been less exposed to the rigours of time and ageing.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><strong><img src="/web/20130425173226im_/http://www.interoute.com/sites/default/files/pdficon.png" alt="PDF icon" title=" download PDF" style="outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; line-height: inherit; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;" height="18" width="14"/>&nbsp;<a href="/web/20130425173226/http://www.interoute.com/sites/default/files/interoute_wholesale_brochure_en.pdf" style="outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; line-height: inherit; color: #3399cc; text-decoration: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;">download our Service Provider brochure</a></strong></p> </div> <div id="1" class="inactive"> <p><strong>Co-location</strong></p> <p>Interoute provide the facilities and expertise needed for the commission and operation of an optical network. Thus, customers can compliment their Dark Fibre with co-location space if required at any of the Interoute PoPs including Traffic Nodes, Amplifier or Regenerator sites across Europe. Customers can choose from footprints, cabinets, cages and private suites. The co-location space provided comes with its own market leading service levels and sites designed to provide a secure, resilient, expandable, controlled environment for the initial and ongoing co-location of customer equipment.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Fibre Management</strong></p> <p>Interoute deploys an advanced fibre monitoring system based on the Agilent accessFIBER monitoring system across the entire network footprint. The system can automatically locate the exact position of cable breaks and can detect fibre degradation before network faults occur thus ensuring the highest quality of service. All backed by our Network Operations Centre in Prague, this service ensures year round speedier fault detection and reparation</p> <p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Metro Fibre Footprint</strong></p> <p>G652 Dark Fibre pairs are also available in a number of metropolitan cities, these fibres connect major business parks to established 3<sup>rd</sup> party co-location facilities and onto the interoute pan-European network. &nbsp;Available on both a lease and an IRU basis, interoute's metro fibre proposition is suited for those just looking for simple metro connections right through to those looking to drop traffic on major pan-European deployments.&nbsp;</p> <p>As one of Europe's foremost network builders, Interoute have a depth of experience and knowledge for both acquiring and building
