Vodafone Qatar selects Alcatel-Lucent for landline contract

Vodafone Qatar has awarded an agreement to Alcatel-Lucent to be the sole supplier for an expansion into the fixed broadband market. Following the award of a landline license last year, Vodafone Qatar is planning to offer customers an integrated service, encompassing fixed and Mobile.

To achieve this ambitious project, Vodafone Qatar selected Alcatel-Lucent, together with partner companies, to deploy an entirely new fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) network, based on gigabit passive optical network (GPON) and point-to-point Gigabit Ethernet technology. Alcatel-Lucent's IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) solution will then be used to link the new infrastructure with Vodafone Qatar's existing mobile network. This will allow services to be offered seamlessly through fixed and mobile connections without excessive cost or complexity.

According to Jenny Howe, CTO, Vodafone Qatar, the company continues to be committed to bring innovations to their customers and to become the most admired brand in the country. Partnering with Alcatel-Lucent, they will now look to extend their service offerings across Qatar to fixed broadband - a major area of growth for our company. Together with Alcatel-Lucent they will make a world of difference for all people in Qatar.
