TELESTE GROUP’S CABLEWAY RECEIVES ORDER FROM LARGE GERMAN TELECOM OPERATOR
A German telecom operator has placed an order on a fiber network project from Teleste’s local services company. The project value is approximately EUR 3.7 million and it includes building of a broadband communication network excluding house networks, in Mettmann, Germany. Supplied on a so-called turnkey basis the project aims to respond to requirements for fastest internet connectivity and it will run for approximately six months. The received fiber network order represents one of the growth areas as specified in Teleste’s services business strategy.
Construction of fiber-optic networks in Germany has been increasing rapidly in the first half of the year, and many operators are building or considering the building of broadband networks based either partially or entirely on fiber-optic technology. Teleste has previously provided these so-called FTTH networks on a pilot project basis.
