NTT DOCOMO to use Alcatel-Lucent for IP network transformation
14 Oct 2009
Mumbai: Alcatel-Lucent today said that its 7,450 Ethernet service switch has been selected by NTT DOCOMO, Japan's largest mobile operator, for the all-IP transformation of its network.
Alcatel-Lucent's solution will enable NTT DOCOMO to deliver high quality voice, data and video services meeting its customers' diverse demands.
Based on its 7450 ESS, Alcatel-Lucent's solution will help NTT DOCOMO construct a nationwide, high quality, latency-sensitive network addressing voice and video traffic when transporting over its core IP network.
It also provides a smooth evolution path for NTT DOCOMO to upgrade its network to 10Gig and - as network growth demands – to 40Gig and 100Gig.
''This selection by one of the most advanced mobile operators in the world is a strong endorsement of Alcatel-Lucent's IP portfolio,'' said Sean Dolan, president of Alcatel-Lucent's activities in Asia-Pacific.
''Transforming its network to all-IP is enabling NTT DOCOMO to meet its customers' converged service requirements on data, voice and video.''
