We are Ciena

We believe in a network that grows smarter, more agile, and more responsive every day. We call it The Adaptive Network^™. It enables you to optimize infrastructure while incorporating new technologies and ways of working with openness, scalability, and security.

User demands are skyrocketing and legacy systems are incapable of keeping up. Networks and businesses require transformational change. Our solutions enable our clients to handle today’s complexity and tomorrow’s unexpected challenges.

Ciena’s story began more than a quarter of a century ago, when we revolutionized the economics of telecommunications networks. We’ve been first-to-market with more than a dozen key technologies. Today, we continue to redefine networking.

We provide consistent value to our shareholders by strategically balancing our investments in leading innovation with our commitment transforming our customers' networks for the digital age.
