YEREVAN, MAY 12, NOYAN TAPAN. Armenian-Norwegian ADC (Armenian Datacom
Company) started in Armenia the construction of a third international
fiber optic line for data exit and access, as well as negotiations
on connecting it to the line of another international operator, NT
correspondent was informed by the commercial director of the company
Avetik Kalantarian.
According to him, the new trunk channel will allow to link
the company's network of channels to all Armenian marzes
(provinces). Priority is given to the north direction as the main
industrial and recreational zones of the country and its big cities
are mostly located in the north of Armenia and need additional Internet
capacities. ADC's network currently covers Yerevan and Abovian.
ADC now uses the international trunk exit channel of Fibernet company.
"However, we know that we cannot use a rented channel for a long
time. We see that the international exit channels of two Armenian
companies - ArmenTel and Fibernet do not ensure the country's
integration into the international communication market,"
A. Kalantarian said. In his words, all providers of Armenia are
displeased with the quality of services provided.
It is expected that the association point of the new international
channel will be with a channel of a European operator rather than with
that of a Georgian or Russian operator which will enable to avoid
various problems related to resale of operator services. He added
that during the recent placement of the current network in Yerevan
and Abovian, the conductor's capacity was fixed at 200 gigabits/sec,
whereas ArmenTel was able to ensure a capacity of 1 gagabit/sec
in late 2007. "In order to meet the growing demands of our users,
we believe that our channel should have a capacity in line with the
network," the commercial director of ADC said.
The company started operating in the second half of 2007 and has
signed agreements on provision of access services with several hundred
corporate customers in Yerevan and Abovian, based on whose orders the
company organizes channels among offices located far from each other
and provides data transmission services. According to A. Kalantarian,
the number of these channels will soon exceed a thousand.
