Friday, 01 June 2012 |
Bharti Airtel has selected Alcatel-Lucent to create Internet protocol (IP) access network – based on Carrier Ethernet technology (CEN) - thereby enabling the operator to deliver faster mobile broadband speeds to its customers. This IP network will allow Bharti Airtel to meet the surging bandwidth requirements of customers while accessing data, video and Internet services on an array of devices, such as smart-phones, tablets and laptops.
With ever growing data demand for both personal and enterprise broadband services set to soar further, Bharti Airtel's move to create a CEN (carrier-grade Ethernet)-based IP access network will help the company to offer its customers various services such as video streaming, high speed data , social network-based applications, online gaming, video conferencing and online collaboration. Additionally this network would also be catering to the DSL broadband as well as 2G/3G/4G voice and data traffic making it a true converged network. – Communications Today Bureau
