The deployment is the first for the Lightspan MF-14 in the Southern Hemisphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With unmatched capacity, space efficiency, low latency, intelligence, reliability and power efficiency, the MF-14 will help nbn address Australia\u2019s broadband needs well into the future and help the company realize its Toward Zero Carbon Ambition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nokia\u2019s Altiplano Access Controller is a Software-Defined (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) tool used to drive greater automation and virtualization. It enables innovation in the way the network is managed with an open API to automate and program the network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>nbn recently welcomed the Australian Government\u2019s commitment to invest an additional AU$2.4 billion to roll out more fiber to communities across Australia. The new investment will enable an additional 1.5 million homes and businesses currently served by Fiber to the Node (FTTN) to upgrade to Fiber to the Premises (FTTP). Coupled with the additional homes and businesses connected by fiber, nbn is evolving the FTTP technology platform to enable higher-speed services and has recently successfully completed lab evaluations of 25Gbps FTTP technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Full fiber connections will help deliver faster broadband speeds, better reliability and energy efficiency, as well as support additional data capacity for the nbn network. These upgrades will help ensure eligible customers can more effectively work from home and operate online businesses, participate in online education, engage in telehealth consultations, stream entertainment and connect with friends and family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>nbn will be the first operator in the Southern Hemisphere to adopt the MF-14 platform following announcements by US and UK operators in October 2022. Deployment will commence in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRapid technological advances will play a critical role in driving the economic prosperity of our nation and in enabling our transition to a smarter, digitally enabled economy,\u201d said Stephen Rue, CEO at nbn. \u201cBy leading the deployment of this next-generation technology, we can help meet our nation\u2019s data demands now and into the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTogether with our network investment that is pushing fiber deeper into communities and extending fixed wireless and satellite coverage and capabilities, we are helping unlock social and economic benefits for households, businesses and communities across Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMore than 8.5 million households and businesses are connected to services over the nbn network \u2013 this equates to approximately 20 million people relying on our network every day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNokia and nbn have been partners for more than 10 years and we\u2019re excited to continue to support nbn in this next technological evolution, deploying more advanced and energy-efficient networking technology,\u201d said Ricky Corker, Chief Customer Experience Officer at Nokia. \u201cUsing Nokia\u2019s advanced fiber technology coupled with our network optimization and automation capabilities, Nokia and nbn can meet customer demand for a faster, smarter, greener broadband network today and well into the future.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nokia and NBN, have announced the deployment of Nokia\u2019s next-generation broadband platform and its Altiplano Access Controller, to deliver a smarter, faster and greener nbn network.
