Telcordia Network Engineer to manage fiber buildout
Telcordia has announced that Dublin-based Magnet Networks, a full service multiplay digital services operator, has selected Telcordia Network Engineer, the ESRI-based network planning and engineering solution, to support its current fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) build-out initiative and network expansion plans. Network Engineer will be a critical component as Magnet Networks rolls out advanced triple-play services, including digital telephony, digital TV and high-speed broadband services.
“Telcordia Network Engineer provides Magnet Networks with a holistic view of our current network operations,” says Bart Bonsall, Chief Operating Officer, Magnet Networks. “It was critical we find a proven solution where we could see our networks, exchanges and customer addresses all on one system, which integrates seamlessly into our back office application. Network Engineer was the only option that met our needs to plan big, start small and scale fast and we look forward to the major gains in operational efficiency we will realise with this solution.”
Network Engineer, which utilises ESRI ArcGIS technology, allows for the visual planning and design of networks to maximise network resources, improve customer service, increase data flow and achieve operational efficiency. Magnet Networks will use Network Engineer to map its entire physical infrastructure and to model its internal and external plant and equipment in order to facilitate a managed approach to its complete network rollout, which uses FTTH and ADSL2+ broadband technology.
“We are pleased to be working with Magnet Networks and look forward to helping them realise their business objectives of operating a state-of-the-art digital communications network. As Magnet Networks continues to expand its advanced services capabilities and geographic reach, Telcordia will remain prepared to assist, supporting Magnet Networks’ expansion and introduction of triple-play services,” said Tom Counts, Vice President, Network and Planning Solutions, Telcordia. “Network Engineer supports Magnet Networks’ mission of being the triple-play provider of choice in Ireland by providing a robust, proven solution that enables Magnet to use geospatial intelligence to plan, design and build the network to effectively deliver advanced services so its customers can enjoy the full experience of digital living offered at competitive prices.”
