Nokia today said that AirFiber Networks, an Internet Service Provider (ISP) in Bangalore and Tamil Nadu, will use its broadband solution to launch high speed data services and expand its network to better serve its subscribers. Nokia's Gigabit Passive Optical Networking (GPON) solution will enable AirFiber Networks to provide high-speed broadband services in Bangalore and underpenetrated areas of Tamil Nadu, aiming to reach over 100,000 subscribers in a year. The deployment will be completed over the next few months. Once deployed, AirFiber Networks subscribers will be able to access network for remote working, and other services over broadband connection such as remote education and healthcare. Nokia's GPON solution includes both network and customer premise equipment. Nokia will also provide Network Management Services to ensure timely and efficient execution of the project. Nokia's fiber access network will help Airfiber Networks establish a strong foundation to easily upgrade to next-generation PON technologies, which allow service providers to rapidly boost capacity and provide superior speeds.
