Infinera

Infinera is a vertically integrated optical networking and DWDM transport equipment vendor, known for its in-house photonic integrated circuits, coherent optical engines (ICE), XR optics, and the GX, Groove, and FlexILS system lines used by carriers, cloud/internet-content providers, and enterprises to build high-capacity transport networks. Infinera was acquired by Nokia (completed in 2025) and now operates as part of Nokia Optical Networks. Network programmability is delivered through open transport-networking standards (ONF TAPI, OpenConfig, gNMI/gNXI, NETCONF/YANG) and infrastructure automation (a published Terraform provider and an Ansible collection) rather than a single proprietary REST API.

Infinera is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Hardware, Optical Networking, Telecommunications, and Networking.

Infinera’s developer surface includes documentation and 10 more developer resources.
