Ottawa — Monday, April 18, 2011 // BTI Systems, an innovator in packet optical networking for metropolitan networks, today announced it has increased its market penetration in the high-growth telecom sector of Russia and CIS. Driven by the increased use of IP communications services in the region, the company’s solutions have been selected by leading mobile, fixed-line and Internet service providers building next-generation networks to connect customers throughout the Russian Central and Ural Federal regions, Ukraine and Armenia.
The largest operator of cellular, fixed, wireless, international and national carrier services in the Ural region has selected BTI Systems to build a converged backbone to enable the delivery and management of both packet-based broadband and traditional circuit-based services by a single system. This new, converged network will deliver a premium experience for its business, residential and wholesale customers.
