Nokia advances digital connectivity in Southeast Mexico with MX Fiber partnership

Nokia partners with MX Fiber to enhance digital connectivity in underserved regions of Southeast Mexico.

Nokia has unveiled a significant infrastructure development through its new deployment of a high-speed optical transport backbone network for MX Fiber. This initiative is set to transform Southeast Mexico by providing robust, high-capacity connectivity.

This future-proof network is expected to digitally empower the regions of Chiapas, Tabasco, and Quintana Roo, with plans to expand to Campeche and Veracruz. For these areas, which have long been devoid of adequate infrastructure, the network signifies a major leap forward. Communities, businesses, and government initiatives will benefit from rapidly improved internet services, enhanced cloud access, and better data-intensive application support. This promises a boost to economic revitalisation, offering modern services that can drive growth and opportunity.

Powered by Nokia's innovative Flex-Grid DWDM technology and the 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS), the network spans 1,800 km, presenting scalable services of 10G, 100G, and 200G. This connectivity ensures vital links to modern data centres, industrial hubs, and subsea transport points, all crucial for facilitating commerce, mobility, and digital inclusivity across the region.

The Nokia 1830 PSS solution offers an efficient pathway for service delivery, permitting seamless upgrades to 400G and 800G capacities without service disruptions. Additionally, with features like dynamic network management and real-time monitoring through Optical Time-Domain Reflectometry (OTDR), users are offered assurance of robust and future-ready connectivity.

“We are very happy to work with Nokia to deploy a proven, optical solution that delivers massive capacity and high-quality services at a lower operational cost. This solution is crucial to supporting our customers and to the success of mega-projects such as the Interoceanic Corridor of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec and Maya Train which are designed to spur economic development in the region. We look forward to continuing to grow and evolve with Nokia,” said Nestor Bergero, CEO, MX Fiber.

“This is a major step forward for digital inclusion and economic empowerment in Southeastern Mexico. We’re honored to support MX Fiber with world-class optical technology that delivers scale, reliability, and future-ready performance,” said Javier Falcón, Director of Network Infrastructure for Latin America, Nokia.
