Ucom takes part in FTTH Council Europe Conference

On February 10-12, Ucom is taking part in EXPO XXI of FTTH Council Europe Conference presenting its practice and achievements in providing fiber-optic cables for apartments.

“Ucom was the first company in Armenia to provide apartments with information access through fiber-optic cables. As a leader in this field, Chief Marketing Officer at Ucom Karen Shaboyan will introduce the company’s best practice to various international companies in Poland”, reads the press release.

Ucom initially built the network using the Ericsson BLM 1500 and T-Series ONTs. However, after Calix purchased Ericsson's fiber access assets, and subsequent platform integration work, the company has now switched to the Calix E7-2 and E7-20 Ethernet Service Access Platforms (ESAPs) for future services.

“The broadband infrastructure in Armenia has leapt forward with Ucom's high-quality fiber-based networks. The company is already offering a wide range of opportunities for government, education, and library services in Armenia, creating powerful new services that now pass over half of the homes and business in the country and changing the lives and opportunities for the a growing proportion of Armenians”, said Senior Vice President, International Sales at Calix Andy Lockhart.
