Nokia announced Netplus, the broadband business of Fastway Media, a Multi-System Operator (MSO) in India, will deploy Gigabit Passive Optical Networking (GPON) technology.
The upgraded network will allow Netplus subscribers to enjoy new ultra-broadband such as IPTV and quad-play services, Prem Ojha, chief executive officer of Fastway Group, said in a statement.
Nokia’s GPON broadband solution allows integration with the existing network enabling Netplus to grow their network. The solution, based on Nokia’s mini-OLT and ISAM DF products, facilitates flexible deployments deep in the network, eliminating the need for a central office while driving cost efficiencies.
Vinish Bawa, head of Emerging Business at Nokia, said: “Like Netplus, MSOs across India are transforming their networks to respond to customer requirements. We are now engaged with all the top MSOs in the country.”
