NSN is proving its mettle on Indian soil...
If you’re wondering what 1... 2... 3... meant, it does a lot... lot more than the numbers alone can signify, for in less than a month, a giant went berserk and bagged deal after deal after deal... three deals – and all to expand India’s telecom networks! (Phew!) And for the uninitiated, we are talking about Nokia Siemens networks (NSN) here! It was all triggered by the bagging of the Idea Cellular network expansion contract, worth a colossal Rs.2 billion. Then followed another from Aircel valued at Rs.300 crore to build and operate a green-field GSM network in Kolkata. The most recent one was pocketing of a modernization project for Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited’s network. The new access network’s high bandwidth will guarantee that BSNL’s customers have the availability to use data intensive applications with the highest quality data transmission and without long waiting times. “In a first step BSNL will supply 283 cities in 17 Indian states with 800,000 new high-speed connections based on Carrier Ethernet technology from NSN. BSNL will roll out 6 million connections with the option of an additional 3 million in the next 3 years,” said NSN in a company statement. By the end of July 2007, NSN will put together Gigabit Ether net capable IP DSLAMs (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexers) in BSNL’s network and also contribute fully the end-user devices necessary for subscription to BSNL’s services. Clearly, looking at the strategy of NSN, it’s evident that the company is all set to prove its competence in terms of its network establishment capabilities. And despite the company officials being unavailable for comments on the issue, the Finnish- German JV entity with its cutting-edge technology has for sure done very well to stem its position as a frontrunner in India’s telecom marathon...
