"We are very pleased
to receive this prestigious order. It confirms 42Networks’ position
as a leading FTTH CPE solution provider in Europe. This contract is
especially important as The Netherlands is one of the key markets
for FTTH deployments in Europe and it shows the increased demand for
triple play services i.e. IP TV, IP telephony and internet access.
42Networks’ excellent telephony competence and capabilities are a
very important contribution in this FTTH project", says Henrik
Scharp, CEO 42Networks.
"We are delighted to further strengthen our partnership with
42Neworks by providing a very successful customer with this mass
broadband deployment," said Martin Thunman, CEO of PacketFront. "Its
industry leading voice software is cutting edge and this order of
33,000 DRG units is a clear indication of the growing recognition
and need for a more sophisticated broadband solution.”
A DRG-unit allows the end user to easily access Triple-Play services
in a fully-automated network. The end user can use standard analogue
telephones to make telephone calls over the broadband connection and
simultaneously connect user devices for other broadband services
such as fast Internet and IP-TV.
