NetCologne Chooses Marconi's Access Hub

NetCologne, one of the most successful German city-carriers, selected Marconi's Access Hub, a Multi Service Access Node (MSAN), to collapse layers in its access network. This will allow NetCologne to make a seamless transition to an IP-based network. The Marconi Access Hub will serve both residential and business customers. Initially, the company will offer telephone and broadband services for residential customers and the latest G.SHDSL (Single-pair High Speed Digital Subscriber Line) services for business customers.


Planned services will also include VDSL and optical Ethernet. As customers bandwidth requirements increase further, fiber-based solutions such as Fibre to the Curb and Fibre to the Home can also be offered by integrating PON technology into the Access Hub.
