Alcatel-Lucent has been awarded an extension contract by Delta Telecom, a data, voice and backbone service provider in the Caucasus region, to extend its IP Multi-Protocol Label Switching (IP/MPLS) backbone network. The scope of the contract includes design, deployment and maintenance of the network.

Alcatel-Lucent believes its Carrier Ethernet and IP/MPLS solutions will enable Delta Telecom to offer improved communication services to its business customers. The newly-upgraded IP/MPLS network will form the platform for future services, which will enable the next wave of advanced services with minimal further investment, the company said.

Alcatel-Lucent further informed that its IP/MPLS solution supports Delta Telecom’s evolution to a packet-based network architecture as part of the operator’s ongoing MPLS network transformation process.

This approach will enable Delta Telecom to support the convergence of IP voice, data and video over Layer 2 and/or Layer 3 business VPN services with the performance and resiliency necessary to run latency-sensitive applications. The solution will also enable Delta Telecom to tailor business VPN service offerings to each enterprise’s unique requirements, the company noted.
