Finnish telecom gear maker Nokia, along with its partners, has successfully upgraded RailTel\u2019s DWDM (dense wavelength division multiplexing) national long-distance (NLD) network nationwide. <\/p>\n
In a joint statement on Tuesday, Nokia said it has deployed RailTel\u2019s Carrier-Grade NAT (CG-NAT) and metro optical transport network across India. <\/p>\n
These initiatives collectively address the growing demand for high-speed, resilient connectivity, driving operational efficiency and reducing costs.<\/p>\n
The companies, however, did not disclose the financial terms of the deal. <\/p>\n
Leveraging Nokia\u2019s 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) and advanced transponder technology, the enhanced network achieves a substantial increase in transport capacity while minimising cost per bit. <\/p>\n
By reutilising RailTel\u2019s existing infrastructure and previously unused channel spectrum, the deployment also introduces high-capacity Lambda transmission and express traffic lanes between cities, significantly improving overall network performance. <\/p>\n
Nokia\u2019s 7750 Service Router (SR), integrated with Broadband Network Gateway (BNG) and CG-NAT functionality, will allow RailTel\u2019s network to efficiently support enterprise-grade high-speed traffic alongside internal internet service provider (ISP) services. <\/p>\n
This unified network architecture enhances intercity traffic resiliency while addressing RailTel\u2019s expanding bandwidth requirements. <\/p>\n
\u201cThis collaboration represents a pivotal step in modernising our BNG, CG-NAT and optical transport systems. Through the integration of Nokia\u2019s advanced technologies with our existing infrastructure, we are positioned to achieve exceptional efficiency,\u201d said Sanjai Kumar, CMD at RailTel.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt a time when demand for high-speed, resilient network services is constantly increasing, RailTel has put its trust in Nokia to ensure its critical network modernisation project is successful,\u201d said Prashant Malkani, head of India sales (network infrastructure), Nokia.<\/p>\n
The use of Nokia\u2019s latest IP routers and optical transponders will help RailTel to reduce costs and improve operational efficiency, Malkani added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
