Nokia has strengthened its long-standing partnership with Bouygues Telecom by supplying market-leading FP5-based IP routers to modernize the operator’s IP core network and increase the capacity of its security gateway solutions.
Nokia’s solution includes the 7750 Service Router (SR) platform, powered by the company’s cutting-edge FP5 routing silicon. The FP5, a key component of Bouygues Telecom’s selection, is a significant enabler for building higher-capacity, more energy-efficient IP networks. The FP5’s 800GE capability will also accelerate Bouygues Telecom’s ability to scale and meet future traffic growth sustainably. Nokia’s system design innovation allows for a simple upgrade from the existing FP4 platform to FP5, extending the network life of deployed systems while scaling capacity.
In order to meet the increasing capacity and scalability demands of mobile broadband services, Nokia will also enhance Bouygues Telecom’s current Nokia security gateway services through the deployment of its FP5 powered, SR-1 routers and the 7750 Extended Services Appliance (ESA).
Chief Technology Officer at Bouygues Telecom, Jean-Paul ARZEL, said, “We have had a long relationship with Nokia, and we were looking for a reliable future-ready solution to help us evolve our IP network to match our growing customer base. The upgrade of our IP network with FP5 will allow us to balance capacity and sustainability to deliver the best customer experience.”
“We are delighted to extend our relationship with Bouygues Telecom to support its strategic priorities. Nokia’s IP routing solutions offer best-in-class scalability, efficiency and security, enabling Bouygues Telecom to confidently manage their growth initiatives as they continue delivering the exceptional experience their customers count on both now and in the future,” Vice President, West and Central Europe Market Unit at Nokia, Frédéric Bénéteau, stated.
