"Building resilient networks is no longer simply about adding capacity - it's about creating genuine physical diversity," said Tony O'Sullivan, CEO of RETN. "As international traffic becomes increasingly concentrated on a limited number of routes, customers need unique alternatives that strengthen business continuity. Our new London–Brussels route delivers exactly that."

RETN Shifts 50% of IP/MPLS Traffic onto 400G Coherent ZR+ Infrastructure

The milestone reflects the growing operational use of coherent pluggable technology following RETN’s large-scale deployment of 400G coherent optics across its Pan-Eurasian backbone in 2025. That programme introduced an IP-over-DWDM (IPoDWDM) architecture across key long-haul routes.

“Coherent pluggable technology is now supporting production IP/MPLS traffic at scale. This reflects a wider shift in the industry away from strictly layered transport models towards more integrated IP-over-DWDM architectures in live backbone environments,” said Tony O’Sullivan, CEO of RETN.

RETN adds Kaunas–Białystok route to increase cross-border diversity via Suwałki corridor

The route links Kaunas, a major aggregation hub for Baltic traffic, with Białystok, a key eastern Polish network node connecting onward to Warsaw and Western European backbone routes. Passing through Suwałki, it traverses one of the principal terrestrial crossings between Lithuania and Poland and a critical gateway between Baltic networks and the wider EU core.

Tony O’Sullivan, CEO of RETN said: “This new route adds a totally unique physically independent path between Lithuania and Poland across a key cross-border corridor. It is part of our sustained approach to building multiple independent routing options across the Nordic–Baltic region, particularly in areas where geography naturally concentrates infrastructure. The route increases diversity and provides additional resilience options for traffic traversing the Baltic–Central Europe axis.”
