Netherland's signetbreedband deploys Nokia's advanced core

Nokia has secured a significant contract with Dutch managed network solutions provider Signetbreedband, a subsidiary of team.blue, a leading digital services provider in Europe. By integrating its advanced routing technology into Signetbreedband's core network, Nokia is enhancing the provider's ability to offer reliable and robust business networking services across the Netherlands.

Nokia is instrumental in the development of Signetbreedband’s new core network, "Connectivity Core." This network features automated and scalable components and integrates various fiber, LTE, and DSL partners to create an open, aggregated network. Nokia has deployed its 7250 interconnect router (IXR) family to build a resilient, scalable, and high-performance MPLS-based core network for Signetbreedband. Additionally, the 7250 IXR routers provide termination points for all regional Points of Presence (POPs).

The deployment also includes Nokia's 7750 Service Router (SR) as the Broadband Network Gateway (BNG), which is crucial for Signetbreedband’s business service networking architecture. The BNG enables automatic authentication, authorization of network access, enforcement of bandwidth policies, and recording of usage data for accounting. This evolution allows Signetbreedband to transition from static provisioning to an automated, centralized system using advanced protocols like NETCONF for improved data configuration management.

Highlights:

  • Nokia partners with Signetbreedband, enhancing their core network capabilities.
  • New core network "Connectivity Core" integrates automated, scalable components with fiber, LTE, and DSL partners.
  • Deployment of 7250 IXR routers provides a resilient, scalable MPLS-based core network with regional POP termination points.
  • Integration of 7750 Service Router acts as Broadband Network Gateway, central to business service networking.
  • Transition to advanced protocols like NETCONF for better data configuration management through automated, centralized provisioning.
  • Improved reliability and performance for business network services in the Netherlands.
