The top telecom and ICT service provider in the nation, PTCL, has successfully implemented Huawei Technologies' AirPON solution in its Fiber Access Network.

With a reduced total cost of ownership and a quicker time to market, AirPON is a novel and ground-breaking Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) solution that uses the infrastructure already in place for mobile-cellular networks.

Utilizing specifically designed, pre-connected Optical Distribution Network (ODN) components, AirPON delivers a novel, effective, and rapid deployment that reduces fieldwork by using a plug-and-play method while significantly raising the level of installation quality.

The infrastructure at cellular mobile sites is utilized to meet the housing, power, and transportation needs of optical line terminal (OLT) equipment.

Chief Technology Officer for the PTCL Group, Jafar Khalid, stated, "We are dedicated to improving our client experience through cutting-edge technologies & solutions. By successfully integrating the AirPON technology into our Network, PTCL and Huawei achieved another significant milestone. The AirPON solution will be a crucial enabler in achieving this goal as we continue to invest in new technologies and products to modernize our network, focusing on accelerating the spread of the high-speed fibre access network to maximum customers.

"Huawei is always committed to working closely with PTCL Group to explore the correct solutions for addressing the evolving business requirements," said Ahmed Bilal Masud, Huawei Pakistan's deputy CEO.

He continued, "Our objective is to provide the PTCL Group with cutting-edge solutions while pledging to reduce implementation costs and time to market through network simplification and developing technologies. We think that AirPON will open up more fibre access nationwide and help PTCL provide quick internet services to its devoted clients.
