PTCL Launch Pakistan’s First 800GB WDM System for Faster Connectivity – Startup Pakistan

PTCL Group, Pakistan’s leading ICT provider, has introduced the country’s first 800 Gbps per wavelength Super C+L Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) system, marking a major step forward in boosting connectivity. This new system will help speed up data transmission and make it more efficient.

The advanced technology allows for a huge data capacity of 64 Tbps (terabits per second) on a single fiber, with the potential to reach up to 96 Tbps in the future.

This development will play a key role in improving Pakistan’s digital infrastructure. The system was developed in partnership with Huawei and offers an expanded optical spectrum of up to 12 THz, compared to the traditional 4.8 THz, which means more data can be transmitted at faster speeds.

By combining 800 Gbps high-speed wavelengths, an ultra-wide Super C+L spectrum, and modern Flexible Grid optical switching, PTCL is placing itself at the forefront of Pakistan’s digital transformation.

This system will help meet the growing demand for faster and more reliable internet services, paving the way for better connectivity across the country. This achievement highlights PTCL’s commitment to driving technological innovation and enhancing Pakistan’s digital future.
