OTEGlobe is an Athens-based network backbone operator offering telecommunication services to businesses and ISPs in southern Europe. The organisation is a whole-owned subsidiary of OTE, the main Greek telecommunications provider.
[edit] Network
OTEGlobe operates 2 wide area networks that form the south-eastern European Internet backbone: GWEN (Greek Western European Network) and TBN (Trans Balkan Network).
GWEN is a private multi-gigabit network based on DWDM/SDH connecting Greece to major European backbone services via Italy. It is composed of 4 rings (Greek inner ring, undersea ring, Italian ring and West-european ring).
TBN forms a land-based backbone network linking Greece to the west-European backbones via Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Austria and the Czech Republic to the main backbone centres in Germany and the United Kingdom. The TBN is used standalone or as a backup service to GWEN.
[edit] Services
OTEGlobe offer a number of wholesale telecommunication services to high-capacity carriers and multi-site organisations:
- Capacity services (via the GWEN and TBN wide area networks)
- Data/IP services
- Voice services
