Client’s situation
The project enables sharing of FTTH infrastructure between Telco operators. The aim of the project was to establish the technical, commercial and time frame of mutual wholesale cooperation between the Telco operator and a wholesale partner (“WS Partner”) in sharing passive FTTH infrastructure with subsequent use in providing broadband access services to end customers. The principle of cooperation lied in:
- Symmetrical access to FTTH networks between the Telco operator and the WS Partner with a balanced mutually agreed number of connectable households;
- Asymmetric access to FTTH Telco operator networks for the needs of the WS Partner with an agreed number of connectable households.
The Client was providing the wholesale product VULA for ISP partners. The Partner Gateway served as an ordering and notification system. This existing solution was reused and supplemented for the New VULA product within the new project. In addition to the existing solution, it was necessary to build new interfaces for passing information from the partner’s technical investigations to technicians and to enable the retrieval of port provisioning by the partner.
The partner created its wholesale solution, which enabled it to order services from companies on the partner network. It was necessary to issue new interfaces for sending orders, obtaining information from the partner’s technical investigations for root company technicians and invoking the client’s port configuration by technicians on the other Telco network.
