KT Expands Nationwide Network with Riverstone

KT (formerly Korea Telecom) will deploy additional RS 8600 routers to expand the capacity and service capabilities of its nationwide Ethernet network. Last year, KT deployed Riverstone's RS 38000 routers in its metropolitan core to provide Gigabit Ethernet capacity and uplinks to its backbone routers. Riverstone's RS routers are also deployed in the access network. Financial terms were not disclosed. KT is engaged in a multiphase project called "Ntopia" linking residential users in Korea's large-scale apartment complexes. KT had more than 5 million subscribers at the end of January, representing 48% of the Korean broadband market.
