In addition, on March 30, 2011 the Company paid an interim cash dividend of 8 cents ($0.08) per ordinary share, totalling approximately $20 million.


The percentages of net revenues by target markets compared to the same quarter last year have hardly altered; the only difference was that wireless communications revenues increased by 1% at the expense of the wired infrastructure market.


“I’m pleased to join Infinera’s board of directors,” said Wegleitner. “Infinera’s innovative technology has already had a major impact on the telecom market, and I believe it is still in the early stages of its development as a force in the global industry.”


“We’re very pleased to welcome Mark to our board,” said Infinera CEO Tom Fallon. “With his years of experience at one of the world’s leading carriers, he will bring valuable insights and perspective to Infinera.”

On the busy Paris-Lyon driving route, Infinera’s PICs, which incorporate InP, offer a large capacity and rapid response for data transmission.


Infinera customers are carrying more than 2 Terabits/second of live revenue-generating network traffic between Paris and Lyon for multiple customers today.


This, the firm says, demonstrates the scalability and reliability of Infinera solutions for carrying large and fast-growing volumes of traffic.


The 450 km route between Paris and Lyon is one of the busiest in Europe, standing at the crossroads between northern and southern Europe, between western Europe and eastern Europe, between traffic from Africa and the Middle East, and traffic from North American which reaches Europe via coastal ports on the English Channel.


Pan-European carrier Interoute and French operator Covage are among the service providers using Infinera networks to deliver services on this route.


Infinera network solutions are specifically designed to carry traffic in the hundreds of Gigabits and Terabit range due to the built-in scalability of the Infinera DTN system. Infinera’s photonic integrated circuits (PICs) integrate more than 60 optical components onto a pair of chips, thus enabling 100Gb/s of pre-provisioned capacity on every line card today, with plans to introduce PICs with 500Gb/s of pre-provisioned capacity on Infinera’s next-generation systems available next year.
