New service enables network operators to boost
subscriber growth, reduce churn and optimize network
investments
ADTRAN, Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN), the leading provider of
next-generation open networking and subscriber experience
solutions, today announced its Automated Network Intelligence
service offering. This capacity planning element of the ADTRAN
global service and support portfolio allows providers to
intelligently align consumer demand with network supply, affording
consumers more tailored internet bandwidth options.
“Edge computing, 5G and increasing bandwidth demands are forcing
service providers to upgrade their networks,” said Andy Hicks,
Principal Analyst at GlobalData. “Their network planning must
evolve from the current reactive, manual and best guess-based
processes to a more granular and efficient system. The capacity
planning tools they use should accommodate multi-vendor
infrastructure, as well as incorporate CAPEX and OPEX optimization.
Given today’s speed of change, automation is the only way to
accomplish this.”
Automated Network Intelligence is a key component of the ADTRAN
global service and support portfolio and introduces a new suite of
innovative products that simplify access network operations by
automating and scaling broadband service delivery. Operators can
leverage automated intelligence to speed access infrastructure
decision-making with increased insight and accuracy. With these
solutions, service providers will be able to more efficiently plan,
design and optimize access networks so their broadband delivery
capacity can quickly be deployed to serve more people with the
right internet service options at a lower network cost.
“The broadband market has become increasingly competitive over
the past decade as the industry races to deliver on the promises of
the Gigabit Economy,” said Girish Kadam, Head of Managed and Cloud
Services at ADTRAN. “The challenges our customers face, in terms of
delivering the best network solutions, are increasingly complex
with the emergence of innovative new 10G fiber and fiber extension
services, 5G and fixed wireless access solutions. ADTRAN has the
domain experience, solutions and industry knowledge to help
operators build, plan, deploy and evolve their best network ahead
of market demand.”
A key feature of the solution is the ability to identify every
underserved copper household that could be upgraded to a
high-bandwidth fiber extension or full fiber-based service within
the cost thresholds set by the carrier. This enables the operator
to better serve its existing customer base as they build out a
Gigabit-enabled fiber broadband network.
