(Thomson Reuters ONE) - Portugal's Sonaecom Is the Latest Operator to Select TelcordiaNetwork Engineer to Ensure a Fast, Efficient Next-Generation NetworkAccess Rollout; Cuts Time-to-Market by 80 PercentPISCATAWAY, NJ -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 07/13/09 -- Worldwidecommunications service providers (CSPs) that are installingnext-generation fiber access networks are increasingly relying onTelcordia for their network design and management needs. Sonaecom,Portugal's leading provider in the telecommunications, broadband andmedia market, is the latest operator to select Telcordia for anational Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) rollout, designed to serve morethan one million homes.For Sonaecom, the key to reducing the cost, complexity and time tomarket for its broadband installation is Telcordia's suite of networkplanning and engineering solutions, including Telcordia(R) NetworkEngineer, a geospatial network management system that enablescomprehensive design, documentation and management of the physicalnetwork and its associated inventory.Sonaecom initially deployed Telcordia Network Engineer in 2001 anduses it to support a EUR 240 million (US$354 million) FTTH networkexpansion that will be available to more than 2.6 million Portugueseresidents by 2011. Through Network Engineer, Sonaecom will tracknetwork inventory all the way to the customer residence, eliminatingthe time and cost of performing those tasks separately in acomputer-aided-design (CAD) system.Eliminating redundant CAD systems is just one of the ways that CSPsuse Telcordia Network Engineer to support major networktransformationprojects. For example, in its FTTH rollout, a European companyreduced planning time by 80 percent by using Network Engineer toautomate network design and connection tasks."For CSPs worldwide, the decision to deploy broadband is easy. It isthe execution that is daunting," said Bill Wanke, President,Operations Solutions, Telcordia. "Telcordia helps operators duringevery step of their network transformation, from planning throughprovisioning, to ensure a fast, efficient rollout for even the mostcomplex deployments. By providing deep, actionable insights intotheir network inventory and its capabilities, Telcordia gives CSPsthe measurable performance improvements that are must-haves at a timewhen competition and access to capital are tougher than ever.""Sonaecom remains steadfast in its commitment to providemarket-differentiating services, and Telcordia Network Engineer hasproven itself in our network to the point that it was a naturalchoiceto expand it to our FTTH rollout," said Artur Loureiro, CIO Sonaecom."By modeling our entire fiber network with Network Engineer, we cannow provision millions of FTTH subscribers quickly andcost-effectively, accelerating service adoption and time to revenue."The growing number of Network Engineer implementations reflects thegeneral willingness on the part of CSPs to invest heavily in FTTxdespite the current economic downturn."Smart service providers realize that an economic slump can be thebest time to invest in the technologies that will determine theirfinancial and competitive positions long after the recession hasended," said Vince Vittore, principal analyst for Yankee Group. "Thatis why operators such as AT&T, Free and Telefonica Spain, as well asthe governments of Australia, Greece and the United States, are eachinvesting billions in aggressive broadband build-outs that willreshape their companies and countries for the next decade. Operatorsmust learn from prior mistakes in the broadband market where theydidn't have enough capacity to support rapid uptake."For more information about Telcordia Network Engineer, visithttp://www.telcordia.com/products/network_eng/index.html.For more information about Telcordia, visit www.telcordia.com.About TelcordiaTelcordia, a global leader in the development of fixed, mobile andbroadband communications software and services, enablesCommunications Service Providers (CSPs), enterprises, suppliers andgovernment entities to successfully deploy innovative and advancedservices that help our clients realize operational efficiencies,drive revenue, and maintain a competitive edge in the new era ofservices-dominated communications.
