Simplify your network expansion with managed network services

Managed Optical Fiber Network (MOFN) is the new industry term for the well-established Managed Network service which Arelion has provided since 2012. We have built fully dedicated customer networks and dedicated transponder shelves on shared systems, providing multi-terabit scale.

With a surge in AI-driven traffic, upgrading networks swiftly and efficiently has become a real challenge. For most organizations, building networks is not their core business; what they actually need is fast and reliable access to network capacity. 

At Arelion, our long-standing expertise in both constructing and managing high-capacity networks makes us the ideal partner for scaling your future network infrastructure.

MOFN for enterprises

A Managed Optical Fiber Network (MOFN) is a strategic solution for today’s enterprises, especially as data center locations and network demands continue to evolve. Let’s explore a few of the most common customer scenarios.

Connecting dedicated data centers

Data centers are now often located where electricity is available rather than where network connectivity is optimal. MOFN bridges this gap by providing dedicated, high-performance fiber connections that link these remote DCs to public and private cloud environments. For customers, this simply ensures seamless access to their cloud environment and services.

Enhanced security through physical separation

Security remains a top priority for enterprises handling sensitive data. MOFN provides physically separated infrastructure - dedicated fiber lines, meeting the highest security standards. This physical isolation reduces drastically the risk of data breaches and supports compliance with strict regulatory requirements.

Futureproofing amid end-of-support challenges

With aging equipment reaching end-of-support, enterprises are now at a crossroads. MOFN presents an opportunity to transition to a more efficient, managed model—reducing operational complexity while maintaining control and performance.
