How a Telecommunications Operator Optimized Its Core Network and Expanded Interconnection Capacity Nationwide

Introduction

In the telecommunications industry, network reliability and capacity are essential pillars to support growing digital traffic and ensure high-quality connectivity experiences. A leading operator in Mexico identified the need to modernize its core and expand interconnection capacity in several cities across the country, aiming to improve service quality and prepare for the demands of new technologies such as IoT and critical applications. To achieve this, it implemented a modernization strategy that included support renewal, reliable infrastructure services, peering licensing, and IPv6 integration, all backed by Juniper equipment and licenses.

Client Description

The company is one of the main telecommunications operators in Mexico, with a broad network that supports mobile, corporate, and high-capacity internet services. Its infrastructure connects millions of residential and business users, requiring maximum reliability, scalability, and security. To maintain its leadership position, the company relies on continuous technological modernization and the adoption of advanced architectures.

Solution

To strengthen its infrastructure and ensure a future-ready core, the operator implemented:

Core Support Renewal 2025, ensuring continuity in network maintenance and operations.
Reliable infrastructure services, maximizing system stability and resilience.
Peering and capacity licenses, optimizing interconnection with other providers and improving internet service quality.
ISP Peering Eureka, boosting interconnection capacity in multiple cities nationwide.
IPv6 integration services, enabling the network to support modern applications and IoT device scalability.
Juniper equipment and licenses, including MX480 and SRXs, used to deliver APN/VPN and IoT services, as well as MX10003, dedicated to peering functions and internet traffic management.
WAG equipment and SRX lab testing, which enabled validation of configurations and ensured optimal performance prior to production deployments.

Project Results

Increased national interconnection capacity, reducing latency and improving the quality of internet and corporate services.
Strengthened core security and reliability, thanks to SRX firewalls and resilient architectures.
Optimized traffic and critical services such as APN/VPN and IoT, supported by Juniper MX480 platforms.
Improved peering efficiency through MX10003 deployment and new capacity licenses.
Guaranteed operational continuity with support renewal and IPv6 integration for next-generation applications.
