Jakarta, Indonesia – Nokia today announced that Varnion Technology Semesta (Varnion), an Internet Service Provider (ISP) focused on the hospitality industry, will use Nokia’s solution including Nokia Altiplano Access Controller, Lightspan MF, and Lightspan DF fiber platforms, to modernize its broadband network. Varnion is upgrading its local area network (LAN) infrastructure from switch-based to PON-based. This transformation will enable Varnion to leverage automation and network insights, offering improved management, flexibility, scalability and reliability.
As part of the three-year agreement, Nokia will supply its solution to transform the broadband experience for Varnion’s customers including more than 300 hotel chains, tourism centers, shopping malls and entertainment centers.

Nokia Altiplano Access Controller automates the network life-cycle management and enables service providers to easily manage the entire access network for greater operational efficiencies. Built upon the Nokia Quillion chipset, the Lightspan MF and DF fiber platforms are designed specifically for next-generation fiber-based broadband networks, enhancing capabilities and optimizing performance.
Alexander Budiman, CEO at Varnion Technology Semesta, said: “We decided to replace the existing solution with Nokia’s solution to futureproof our network infrastructure and to enhance the best-in-class broadband experience for our customers.
