This new connectivity will enable Crawford Media Services to rapidly transport enormous amounts of audio and video data with clients on a national and international scale. ADVA Optical Networking's services team worked closely with Crawford Media Services on each step of the network, helping to plan, build and activate it over a very short period of time. It's this close interworking, rapid response and in-depth knowledge of data center connectivity that has made this relationship such a success.
