Amdocs has announced the next generation of its fibre offering, capitalising on recent acquisitions in the fibre domain. The enhanced offering introduces a robust framework and advanced automation capabilities to accelerate the planning, design, deployment and operation of fibre networks, yielding more cost-effective deployment for global service providers.
Amdocs has established itself as an industry leader in simplifying and speeding the deployment and management of fibre for more than 40 service providers around the world.
Referring to the new collaboration, IQGeo CEO Richard Petti said: “We are excited to collaborate with Amdocs to deliver unmatched value to our mutual customers, providing the telecommunications industry with fiber solutions that help broadband operators achieve faster, more efficient fiber network deployment and operations. Together, we will provide integrated software and services and innovative new use cases that are purpose-built for fiber network deployment and operations teams, to drive business growth and thrive for years to come.”
A newly formed teaming agreement with IQGeo, a developer of geospatial network lifecycle management software for telecom and utility operators, further enhances these capabilities. Amdocs will integrate IQGeo’s network management software into its offering, enabling service providers to visualise, update, and manage their network assets in real-time and to automate key aspects of the planning and design process -- driving faster deployment times and reducing the complexity of managing large-scale fibre projects. Selected benefits for service providers include:
- 30% faster deployment times for fibre rollouts
- Reduction of cabling and trenching by 10% or more
- Significant reduction in network management cost by seamlessly integrating existing systems, replacing manual processes and reducing errors & rework
Amdocs’ fibre offering will provide zero-touch automation capabilities that streamline complex fibre deployment processes. Service providers will benefit from a unified, future-ready solution that supports both greenfield and brownfield deployments, allowing them to optimise time to market, reduce operational costs, and improve overall network performance.
“As increasing their share of the growing broadband market with fibre offerings becomes increasingly critical to service providers around the globe, our fibre solutions will help service providers manage fibre deployment from inception to operations,” said Anthony Goonetilleke, Group President of Technology and Head of Strategy at Amdocs . “Service providers know that seamless connected experiences matter, and broadband is often critical to creating those experiences. Our enhanced offering, including IQGeo’s advanced network management capabilities, will help service providers achieve differentiated experiences for their customers more quickly and efficiently.”
