TransTeleCom Company (TTK), a telecom operator in Russia, and Kazakh operator Transtelecom on October 23, 2018 announced the implementation of a joint project to launch a cross-border network transition. The junction in the network infrastructures of operators is organized between the Aksarayskaya station from the Russian side and the D. Nurpeisova station in Kazakhstan.

The interconnect is made using WDM (wavelength-division multiplexing) technology, which allows you to simultaneously transmit several information channels over one optical fiber at different carrier frequencies at speeds up to 100 Gb/s. As a result of the launch of the transboundary crossing, a highly reliable route was formed, most of which is geographically located in protected zones of railway exclusion that are not areas of general operation. The organization of the junction made it possible to form a transit data transmission route between Europe and Asia, as well as the most convenient and shortest route to Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, the TransTeleCom noted. Operators have a valid network junction in Petropavlovsk in Northern Kazakhstan.

The launch of the second joint will increase the connectivity of Kazakhstan's Transtelecom network with the Russian segment and with global network resources, Internet as well as offer customers geographically distributed routes to improve the reliability of networks.
