Short Take: Sprint, Ciena in deal
Sprint said it struck a deal with Ciena to expand the telecommunication carrier's network capacity by 250 percent, effective next month. Under the three-year agreement, Sprint expands its ability to handle multimedia and high-bandwidth data applications over its network, not just voice. This is part of a growing trend by telcos and cable-television providers to expand their networks to handle advanced data communications.
