Turk Telekom picks Juniper

Turk Telekom has selected Juniper Networks to deploy core routers to upgrade its network capacity and accelerate the introduction of new revenue-generating services. The deployment is designed to consolidate the telco’s existing TDM (Time Division Multiplexing), IP and voice networks onto a single core IP/MPLS network, supporting voice, video and data services. Turk Telekom is upgrading and expanding its broadband infrastructure in response to an increase in demand for core network capacity and performance to support a range of bandwidth-intensive voice, data and content services. It aims to have nine million broadband subscribers by the end of 2008, up from 3.4 million at the end of June 2007.
