Spain Cable Goes IP NGN

PTV Telecom, a triple-play provider in Spain, is replacing its existing infrastructure with a PacketCable-compliant network using Sonus Networks technology to offer enhanced services in five major cities across the country.

PVT Telecom is one of the few cable operators in Spain with a wholly owned network. It's moving to IP out of its existing infrastructure and is expected to facilitate future subscriber base growth, deliver "multi-play" (i.e. voice, video, and data) services to consumers and also give it a lever into the enterprise market with IP trunks and data services.

Sonus is migrating PTV Telecom's entire legacy network across Madrid, Cordoba, Valencia, Seville and Malaga. Sonus is racking up multiple wins both in the cable MSO base--not exactly traditional territory for the IP Next Generation Network "story"--and across Europe.
