Ekinops Signs a 10-Year Contract with Proximus for the Neuron Optical Network
Ekinops has entered into a multi-year framework agreement with Proximus, a Tier 1 Belgian telecom operator, for the deployment of a high-speed national optical network named NEURON. This supplier contract spans 10 years and represents the culmination of the memorandum of understanding announced in March 2026.
Optical Deployment Covering More Than 600 Sites in Belgium
The NEURON project (Next generation Enhanced Uniform Reliable Optical Network) aims to deploy a high-speed national optical network across Belgium, encompassing over 600 sites. Ekinops will provide optical network equipment and services based on its WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) technology. Proximus selected Ekinops' WDM platform notably for its ability to handle all traffic rates, from very low client speeds to very high speeds, within a chassis compatible with 1.6 Tbit/s (terabits per second).
