Deutsche Telekom to Deploy Corrigent’s Network Solutions

Corrigent Systems, a provider of carrier ethernet transport solutions, has announced that its CM-100 and CM-4000 product lines were selected by Media Broadcast as a main network infrastructure building block for network solutions deployed by Deutsche Telekom’s wholesale business unit, and leased to a cable operator in Germany.

Deployments in Lower Saxony and Bavaria begin this year, and rollout in further regions for cable operator are expected to span over the next years as part of a 15-year agreement. First shipments of the CM-100 have commenced.

The company claims that its CM platforms offer a 10Gbps solution combining ethernet transport, full support of legacy Sonet/SDH capabilities, MPLS and RPR technologies, with end-to-end network management, to allow cost-effective and resilient delivery of video, voice and data multi-play services.

The company also claims that its CM-4000 supports the gradual migration from today’s broadcast-centric services to future personalized video services, offering better Quality of Experience (QoE) with capacity scaling capabilities required to address the expected growth in on-demand services.

Izhak Tamir, president and CEO of Corrigent Systems, said: “We are proud to be selected by Media Broadcast for Deutsche Telekom’s cable operator customers. We are looking forward to establishing a long term partnership with Media Broadcast and Deutsche Telekom, and will work with them closely to address their customers’ evolving needs.”
