FEATURE the reuse of RailTel’ s existing infrastructure and previously unused channel spectrum, allowing the organisation to extract greater value from earlier investments.
The solution also introduces high-capacity Lambda transmission and express traffic lanes between cities. These improvements significantly enhance end-to-end performance, enabling faster data movement and more predictable service quality across long-distance and metro routes.
By adopting a vendor-neutral and open-network approach, the partnership lays the foundation for future innovation across RailTel’ s optical footprint. This strategy ensures flexibility in technology choices while protecting longterm investments, an increasingly important consideration as networks evolve to support new digital services.
Nokia’ s 7750 Service Router, integrated with Broadband Network Gateway and Carrier-Grade NAT functionality, empowers
RailTel’ s network to efficiently support enterprise-grade high-speed traffic alongside internal ISP services. The unified architecture improves intercity traffic resiliency and enables more effective management of expanding bandwidth requirements.
According to RailTel, the collaboration represents a major milestone in the modernisation of its core network environment. The integration of IP routing, CG-NAT and optical transport capabilities within a single framework simplifies operations and improves scalability as demand continues to rise.
“ This collaboration represents a pivotal step in modernising our BNG, CG-NAT and optical transport systems. Through the integration of Nokia’ s advanced technologies with our existing infrastructure, we are positioned to achieve exceptional efficiency. These enhancements will enable us to deliver superior, faster, and more reliable services to our enterprise and broadband customers across India.,” said Sanjai Kumar, Chairman and Managing Director, RailTel. www. intelligentcio. com
