Focused on delivering residential and business
services to multi-dwelling units as part of network expansion
ADTRAN®, Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN), a leading provider of
next-generation open networking and subscriber experience
solutions, announced today that M-net has selected the ADTRAN
Software-Defined Access (SD-Access) portfolio, specifically for its
Fiber-to-the-Building (FTTB) products, and Mosaic™ Cloud Platform
to help accelerate the introduction of gigabit services to its
residential and business customers. M-net is leveraging ADTRAN’s
second-generation Gfast technology to rapidly expand its fiber
broadband network coverage by leveraging the existing wiring
throughout the buildings within its footprint. M-net is one of the
leading fiber optic operators in Germany and selected ADTRAN’s
Gigabit Gfast fiber extension solution and the Mosaic Cloud
Platform for its strong support for both the current and future
operational scenarios needed by M-net.
“M-net’s goal is to extend our fiber network into every
connected apartment and office via FTTH over time. The new
generation of Gfast is a solution that immediately enables us to
provide our customers with gigabit services via the existing
FTTB-infrastructure – a solution significantly more reliable, more
robust against interference and much more efficient in the carbon
footprint than alternative technologies in the market,” said Dr.
Hermann Rodler, M-net Chief Technology Officer. “ADTRAN is a
trusted partner for M-net that has proven its ability to support
large scale network roll-outs. They were an early advocate for
Gfast technology and have done a world-class job in taking the
technology from the standard bodies, through lab trials, and into a
carrier-grade solution that is ideal for our network plans. By
going live with Mosaic, we are pleased to achieve the first
milestone in our transformation project as we become a fully
automated network operation.”
M-net is the leading fiber optic provider in Bavaria, Germany,
and offers high-performance triple play services to its residential
customers and an extended portfolio of networking and data center
services to business customers. M-net's service area includes large
parts of Bavaria, the greater Ulm area and the Main-Kinzig district
in Hesse. The company is a pioneer in the use of future-proof fiber
optic technology and was awarded best local provider in Germany
four times in a row in the renowned Connect fixed network test and
most innovative network operator by an influential German business
journal.
“The push for gigabit services is being fueled by competition
and championed by regulatory agencies around the world. Together
this drives the need to bring fiber deeper into the network and
closer to the end user. In scenarios where Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH)
deployment architectures are not pragmatic, broadband access
innovation is required,” said Dr. Eduard Scheiterer, Managing
Director, ADTRAN GmbH. “With its broad Gigabit Gfast portfolio,
ADTRAN is well-positioned to capitalize on this market opportunity
as operators worldwide look to expand the range and reach of
gigabit services to any customer over any network
infrastructure.”
ADTRAN offers an industry-leading portfolio of second-generation
Amendment 3 Gfast solutions ranging from single-port units to
48-port systems with flexible powering options in both indoor and
sealed outdoor housing variants, complemented by respective CPE
offerings. ADTRAN’s Gfast solutions are seamlessly integrated into
its award-winning Mosaic Cloud Platform, featuring a
state-of-the-art service orchestration architecture that provides a
complete suite of network management functions as well as
Software-Defined Network (SDN) control for the entire access
network of ADTRAN and third-party devices. It includes PMAA
functionality, a comprehensive GUI and open standards-based
Northbound interfaces for quick and easy integration into M-net's
OSS/IT systems today and for any future devices added to the
network over time.
