PTCL will be using VDSL2 Bonding technology, (DSL) customers with speeds up to 50 Mbps
Islamabad: Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL) and Alcatel-Lucent in a joint press conference held here on Friday announced the launch of VDSL2 Bonding technology for the first time in Pakistan pioneering the commercial use of this technology in the telecom industry globally. PTCL will be the first service provider to deploy a commercial VDSL2 Bonding solution - showing our commitment to take the broadband service experience in Pakistan to the next level, and be a trendsetter on the international telecoms market.
PTCL will be using VDSL2 Bonding technology to provide existing digital subscriber line (DSL) customers with speeds up to 50 Mbps. The project leverages Alcatel-Lucent’s (Euro next Paris and NYSE: ALU) VDSL2 Bonding expertise and will be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2011.
VDSL2 Bonding takes two copper-based VDSL2 lines per subscriber and aggregates them – almost doubling the bandwidths available to existing customers, or expanding high-speed broadband access to areas that are underserved today. Using VDSL2 Bonding, service providers can extend the life of their existing copper infrastructure - supporting the delivery of bandwidth-intensive services such as triple-play voice, data and HDTV.
According to a recent study from market research firm IHS iSuppli, simultaneous access to applications such as peer-to-peer file sharing, online gaming, streaming audio, VoIP and IPTV will soon require bandwidths between 50 and 100Mbps. This fits exactly with VDSL2’s capabilities, especially when combined with innovations such as Bonding and Vectoring.
Commenting on this achievement Walid Irshaid - President and CEO PTCL stated “PTCL is the first service provider worldwide to deploy a commercial VDSL2 Bonding solution that aims at doubling the bandwidths provided to its existing customers. We are thus setting the trend in international telecoms, and are taking the broadband experience in Pakistan to the next level. Alcatel-Lucent’s VDSL2 Bonding technology and comprehensive services and network integration expertise is helping us to keep pace with the increasing bandwidth requirements of our customers, while capitalizing on the existing copper infrastructure. This will enable us to quickly deliver high-quality, high-speed and high-availability business and residential services – even in areas where it was not possible before.”
Alcatel-Lucent is providing PTCL with its Intelligent Services Access Manager (ISAM) IP access platform – which is the first platform to commercially support VDSL2 Bonding. Alcatel-Lucent will also supply Bonding-ready customer premises equipment (CPE). Alcatel-Lucent serves as the project’s master network integrator, and is providing a range of professional services – including project management, installation and commissioning, integration and technical support.
“We understand that service providers need the right tools to bridge the gap until fiber deployments have become ubiquitous. VDSL2 Bonding is an ideal approach: service providers like PTCL can almost double the speeds supported by their DSL infrastructure or expand their network’s reach. This makes it a fast and cost-effective approach to bridging the digital divide,” said Aadil Rauf CEO Alcatel-Lucent. Pakistan Ltd,. “This commercial VDSL2 Bonding project with PTCL marks the beginning of VDSL2 Bonding deployments outside of the US - where the technology is typically used to expand the reach of the copper network.”
Alcatel-Lucent is the driving force behind the world\'s most advanced VDSL2 roll-outs, with customers such as Belgacom, STC, Swisscom and Telekom Austria. Our VDSL2 solution has also been deployed by competitive operators, including M-net (Germany) and South Yorkshire Digital Region (UK).

Qubee planned to reach new cities with investment of $150 million
Qubee has planned to expand its advanced Internet technology to reach millions of customers in several new cities with the handsome investment of $150 million by end 2011, Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) of Augere Holdings Alistair Johnston disclosed.
While briefing a group of journalists, he unveiled the future plans of Qubee, a 100 percent shareholder subsidiary of Augere – the plans will be executed in the on-going calendar year by the company. Alistair Johnston has designed a roadmap to reach millions of customers in developing countries including Pakistan with the broadband Internet technology in a short span of time.
With working experience of more than 12 years with different renowned telecom giants— Telefonica 02, Orange and Virgin Mobile, Alistair is leading Qubee to become the best selling service in Pakistan with the philosophy of “Broadband for All”. The expansion in operations will offer business ventures and employment opportunities to the local people in this highly advanced technology field, Johnston said.
He explained Qubee’s focus was developing countries, saying that broadband subscribers have been increasing in Pakistan and have crossed the one-million mark. The Pakistani market has terrific potential due to the fact of broadband penetration being very low whereas the larger population is set to adopt this technology in the future. “We are looking forward towards adding more professionals to our staff. The number of employees in the company will increase to 1,000 by year-end,” he said. Recounting the rapid growth of services and network of Qubee since its inception, Alistair said the broadband operator started its operations from Karachi with four sales centers situated in different areas, and now it has expanded its services to four cities with 45 customers’ care centers in the last year. Qubee has outlets at 27 different locations in Karachi. In Lahore, its outlets have been set up at 11 spots and the rest of the outlets were established in different areas of Islamabad and Rawalpindi. The network infrastructure has been widened significantly and now Qubee offers one of the lowest broadband rates in the country with uninterrupted connectivity and extensive download capacity, CMO Augere said.
The tariff starts from Rs 750 for 512 Mps with no activation charges. The services are currently available in four mega cities—Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad and Rawalpindi—with the growing number of customers onboard.
“The home users are our main customers though we have entered into different deals with academic institutes, small-sized business in Karachi,” he asserted. Source:Dailytimes
