China Telecom Selects Alcatel to Upgrade DSL Network for Triple Play Service Delivery8 February 2006
Alcatel (NYSE: ALA; Paris: CGEP.PA) today announced that China Telecom, the largest fixed telecommunication service provider in China, has selected Alcatel to upgrade its existing broadband access network across 26 provinces in China to prepare for triple play service delivery. This agreement was signed through Alcatel Shanghai Bell, Alcatel's flagship Chinese company.
China Telecom will deploy the Alcatel solution in South China's 18 provinces and North China's eight provinces including Guangdong, Shanghai, Sichuan, Zhejiang, Fuzhou, Hei Longjiang and Inner Mongolia. It will lay a solid foundation for future triple play service delivery. China Telecom subscribers will have access to a series of high quality broadband services such as very high-speed Internet access, videoconference, IPTV and other multimedia services.
Gerard Dega, President of Alcatel Shanghai Bell, added, "As user demand for high speed Internet access services grows in China, service providers need to enhance and expand their broadband service offerings to better serve their customers. We are very proud to have been selected once again by China Telecom for this significant broadband access network upgrade. It is also an essential step towards mass deployment of triple play services in China."
China Telecom will deploy the Alcatel 7302 Intelligent Services Access Manager (ISAM). Based on an industry-leading architecture that ensures 100% service throughput to every user simultaneously, the Alcatel ISAM solution will enable China Telecom to offer user-centric broadband services at triple the speed of conventional ADSL technology.
