Ooredoo has partnered with CommScope, a global leader in infrastructure solutions for communications networks to power its new data center with its Intelligent LED lighting system and latest cabling technology. The regional Mobile Network Operator (MNO) has implemented CommScope’s Redwood® - data center lighting solution , imVision® - fiber and copper cabling management system and SYSTIMAX® - pre-terminated fiber and copper cross-connect solution to support a fully integrated, intelligent IT and facilities infrastructure at its data center. 

CommScope said that the company was chosen to partner with Ooredoo at its Qatar data center in Mesaimeer to create a smarter data center by deploying innovative intelligent LED lighting and infrastructure solutions.

The Redwood intelligent lighting solution from CommScope enables Ooredoo to individually address, monitor and manage the lighting to dramatically improve the operational efficiency of the Ooredoo data center. The solution features fixtures and sensors that are individually addressable to achieve energy reduction. The imVision intelligent connectivity management solution seamlessly integrates with Ooredoo’s process flow and business continuity policies specific to the network management, operational, active directory and data center infrastructure management solutions.  This integration provides a real-time physical connectivity guide for all networking and server hardware, as well as virtual servers.

According to CommScope, Ooredoo’s data center is also the first tier-3 data center in Qatar to deploy imVision to offer intelligent and manageable high speed copper and fiber cabling on all its data center offerings. Ooredoo also deployed the SYSTIMAX® copper and pre-terminated fiber solutions, which support the current 10Gb/s Ethernet performance, with a clear upgrade path to 40G and 100G speeds in the future, added CommScope.  

A major part of our focus at Ooredoo is enabling the best possible customer experience, which is why we are continuing to invest in emerging technologies in our data center to meet our end customers’ high performance services availability requirements. We have invested in technologies that can support customers’ data center hosting requirements in the next decade, in line with the Qatar National Vision 2030.
