VivaCell-MTS, the subsidiary of "Mobile TeleSystems" OJSC, and GNC-Alfa
CJSC today signed an agreement that will allow VivaCell-MTS diversify
the routes for its own high-speed, fiber-optic backbone network. Under
this contract, VivaCell-MTS will acquire the optical dark fibers in
the northern segment of GNC-Alfa's fiber optic cable system to be laid
in 2010 between Yerevan and Armenian-Georgian border under the second
phase of implementation. Earlier on November 17th, VivaCell- MTS and
GNC-Alfa signed an agreement that will allow VivaCell-MTS creating
a national network and connecting to international network. In the
south the GNC-Alfa's fiber optic network cable is interconnected to
Iran's long-distance fiber-optic network providing further access to
the worldwide telecommunications networks.
The northern segment of GNC-Alfa's fiber optic cable will tap into
international networks serving as an alternative route. It is expected
to be carrying data traffic by early next year, linking Armenia
and Eurasia through Georgia. Connected to international networks,
VivaCell-MTS' national network will allow the Company to meet the
demand for more bandwidth to handle explosive demand by VivaCell-MTS
subscribers for broadband internet. The Company expects that between
2010 and 2013, the number of customers using broadband Internet in
Armenia will grow significantly.
"The expansion of VivaCell-MTS' fiber-optical network, in addition to
providing more capacity, aims to diversify routes of international
data traffic. VivaCell-MTS' own fiber optical network will provide
high-bandwidth access for Armenia. We are in the process of adapting
to new realities in the mobile broadband market. Traffic is booming.
Data volumes are going up very fast. From a subscriber's erspective,
it will allow providing higher quality and reliable solutions," said
VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian. "So far VivaCell-MTS has
increased the capacity for data transmission five times to cater for
market ongoing growing demand on Internet usage, and will spare no
efforts to continuously expand the capacity, and buying additional
fiber from GNC-Alfa is yet another example about our long-term
strategic planning and readiness for more," added Ralph Yirikian.
