The project will grant Turk Telekom a major expansion of its telecommunications infrastructure to keep up with the country’s growing demand for fast multimedia services.
The new high-speed national backbone connecting major cities across Turkey will provide Turk Telekom with the first DWDM systems ever deployed in the country for commercial application Alcatel’s DWDM systems, part of the Optinex family of carrier-class transmission solutions, will be able to carry up to 32 channels at 10 Gbps and will operate with a capacity equivalent to 38 million telephone conversations simultaneously.
As part of the agreement, Alcatel will also supply its integrated network management platform, for both DWDM and SDH solutions, to optimize the traffic control and routing at all network levels, thus simplifying the overall network performance.
