Spescom gets R10m contract
ADSL South Africa (Broadband South Africa), 24 June
2007
Spescom
Telecommunications managed to secure a R10m Neotel contract.
‘Spescom Telecommunications has secured a three-year contract to supply and service
next-generation synchronous digital hierarchy (NGSDH) transmission equipment to second national operator, Neotel’
(Spescom grabs R10m Neotel contract, Kimberley Guest, ITWEB, 20 June 2007).
In other words, Spescom will supply and service NGSDH transmission equipment to
Neotel over the next three years.
Why do Neotel need NGSDH transmission equipment?
“The NGSDH equipment will connect to the Infraco core transmission network and to the
metropolitan transmission network. This in turn will connect to corporate customers” (Spescom grabs R10m Neotel
contract, Kimberley Guest, ITWEB, 20 June 2007).
In other words, Neotel needs NGSDH equipment in order to supply a large range of
services.
When will Spescom start to install the NGSDH equipment?
Spescom already started…
‘Under pressure from Neotel to fast-track implementation, Spescom has already
installed the first batch of the contract in Cape Town’ (Spescom grabs R10m Neotel contract, Kimberley Guest,
ITWEB, 20 June 2007).
In other words, Spescom already started because Neotel is pushing for fast
implementation.
