Joint venture formed by companies to design,
deploy and operate GPON fiber-optic networks to
serve more than 400 000 residences and 2 500
schools in 13 regions in central and northern
Poland
Project is part of the Digital Poland 2014-2020
program, which is partly funded by the EU under
its Digital Agenda 2020 initiative
Capital expenditure for the project is expected to
be approximately €300 million
June 22 2017
Espoo, Finland - Nokia and Infracapital, the
infrastructure arm of M&G Investments, have won a
tender from the government of Poland to design,
build and operate advanced fiber optic networks to
deliver broadband service to residences and schools
in 12 under-served regions mostly in the northern
and central parts of the country. The companies
expect to sign an agreement for a 13th region in
July.
These networks, based on Gigabit Passive Optical
Network (GPON) technology, will deliver speeds of
100 megabits per second (Mbps) to more than 400
000 homes and approximately 2 500 schools in the
largely rural voivodships (or provinces) of Lodzkie,
Swietokrzyskie, Kujawsko-Pomorskie and
Warminsko-Mazurskie. Capital expenditure for the
project is expected to be approximately €300 million.
The networks will be built and operated as
wholesale open access networks, with services to be
marketed and delivered by retail service providers.
This transformational initiative has been driven by
Poland's Ministry of Digitalization and subsidized in
part by grants from the EU under its EU Digital
Agenda 2020 program. This program targets the
delivery of fast broadband services with download
speeds of at least 30 Mbps to all EU citizens, and at
least 100 Mbps to 50 percent of EU citizens, by 2020.
Beginning in 2018, these under-served regions of
Poland will benefit from a high-speed, high-quality
and resilient fiber network that can deliver ultra-
broadband services that will help to better connect
schools, provide e-health and digital services and
deliver socio-economic benefits, as well as
supporting residential triple-play services such as
HD video streaming, 4K TV, and real-time gaming.
In addition to the broadband network infrastructure,
Nokia will provide a variety of professional and
maintenance services. Nokia is responsible for the
project management, planning, design and
deployment of both the broadband and passive fiber
optic network. Nokia, with its experience and
expertise with outside plant networks, will manage
the overall delivery of the passive fiber network
rollout up to connecting the schools and homes to
the network.
This project builds on Nokia's strong track-record
supporting government-driven broadband initiatives
to both national and regional governments
worldwide. It also highlights the progress of Nokia's
strategy of expanding its customer base outside of
the traditional telecommunications sphere, a key
focus of the company.
Osvaldo di Campli, head of Global Enterprise &
Public Sector at Nokia, said: "For many years, Nokia
has been a partner to government organizations like
Poland's Ministry of Digitalization that are looking
to deliver broadband connectivity to citizens
regardless of their location. This exciting project
with our partner, Infracapital, will help to ensure that
everyone in Poland who wants a high-speed internet
connection has access to that service. We are proud
to play an important role in bridging the digital
gap."
Key Facts:
The networks will feature Nokia's market leading
fiber access platform, the 7360 Intelligent Service
Access Manager (ISAM) FX, the new Nokia 7362
ISAM DF small form factor fiber access platform,
along with the 7368 ISAM ONT.
The Nokia ISAM family is the most widely
deployed fixed access platform in the world.
The networks will also include the Nokia 5520
