SHARE THIS ARTICLE

Nokia has been selected by Deutsche Telekom as a long-term strategic partner to transform the operator’s optical network into a service-centric platform that can easily scale to meet Industry 4.0 demands. The transformation, according to Nokia, will enable Deutsche Telekom to deliver an enhanced service quality experience to its customers by upgrading the existing network to a more scalable and automated one. 

The solution will transform Deutsche Telekom’s optical core network and strategic regional distribution sites, enabling what the companies project to be optimized performance and a consistent customer experience across Germany. At the heart of the network transformation are the Nokia WaveFabric service-ready platforms and Nokia WaveSuite software portfolio, which includes the Nokia 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) powered by the PSE-V family of coherent DSPs (digital signal processors). 

“We are transforming our optical network to give our customers a highly differentiated service quality of experience,” Dr. Erik Weiss, VP Optical Transport Core, Deutsche Telekom Technik, said, “and to be more responsive to their new services needs while also reducing our network TCO. The Nokia optical transport solution enables us to realize these goals by creating a more scalable and automated services-centric platform that will support us well into the future.”
