High-Speed FTTH and Wireless Broadband Expansion in Gauteng [TendersInfo (India)]


(TendersInfo (India) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Scope of work: Expansion of fixed wireless network to include extended reach throughout newly developed housing and commercial areas in Gauteng. Background: OTEL Telecoms expands Gauteng network offering high-speed FTTH and wireless broadband to gated communities and business parks. With the addition of a few new point-of-presences (PoPs) in Gauteng, OTEL Telecoms offers expanded wireless Internet and voice coverage to more businesses, giving the company an even greater footprint in the Gauteng metropolitan areas. Contrary to the belief that fibre is the only source of high-speed Internet access, wireless is a viable option which can be deployed quickly and cost effectively in areas where fibre may not be financially feasible to deploy. Although 100Mbps is an appealing broadband speed, residence bandwidth requirement for a comfortable Internet experience currently averages at 20Mbps with small to medium businesses averaging at 40Mbps. This is sure to grow in the coming years as video, software sizes, cloud computing and other home and business applications become more bandwidth hungry.
