Thailand's leading converged service provider uses Nokia's IP/MPLS technology to enhance the quality of experience for consumers and businesses

28 September 2016

Bangkok, Thailand - True Group, Thailand's leading converged fixed and mobile operator, has deployed Nokia's IP/MPLS routing technology to upgrade its broadband infrastructure in the bustling capital of the country, Bangkok.

Surging demand for ultra-broadband fixed and mobile services, such as high-definition video and business services, have helped drive a dramatic increase in data traffic across True's converged network, both in the city and its surrounding area.

True is using Nokia's IP routing technology to modernize its broadband infrastructure to improve the quality of experience and better support the growing high-bandwidth content demands of consumers and businesses. Nokia's leading Service Router portfolio delivers the network performance and service richness necessary for True to provide flawless 4G LTE and 3G coverage to its 18 million mobile subscribers, high speed broadband to its 2.5 million broadband subscribers, and high quality pay TV service to its 3.2 million TrueVision customers. The network upgrade was completed in May 2016.

Key Facts

  • The new IP/MPLS network is helping True meet the growing demands of fixed and mobile subscribers with a high-quality customer experience.

  • True can also leverage Nokia's infrastructure in the future to evolve to more dynamic agile services powered by Software Defined Networks (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV).

  • True is using Nokia 7750 Service Routers (7750 SR) in Bangkok with the 7210 service access switch (SAS) being deployed in the northeast, east and central west regions of Thailand.

  • Nokia's 7750 SR portfolio is a suite of multi-service routing platforms which deliver high performance and service richness, and create exceptional value for networking in the cloud era.

  • Nokia's 7210 SAS portfolio provides full function of Layer 2, Layer 3 and IP/MPLS services for access and aggregation applications.

Vichaow Rakphongphairoj, Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Operational Development, True Corporation, said :

"By leveraging Nokia's expertise and leading routing technology, we are able to provide seamless 4G LTE and 3G coverage along with quality, high-speed broadband data, voice and TV services to our mobile and fixed customers. We can also deliver advanced high-speed residential, business and mobile services even more quickly and efficiently."

Sebastien Laurent, country director of Nokia Thailand, said :

"We are very honored to play such an important role in True Group's network transformation. As IP networking specialists, we have a long and successful heritage of deploying IP routers within operator networks across the globe. Our Service Router portfolio gives True the highest performance and service richness to help meet the stringent demands of consumers and businesses."
