First commercial deployment of G.fast ultra-broadband tech to happen in June: Nokia

Follow Us

Nokia said that Energia Communications (EneCom) will deploy the G.fast technology first in the Chugokua region of Japan around June 2016. The deployment will allow the ICT service provider use its existing copper networks to quickly deliver up to 1Gbps ultra-broadband access to residential subscribers.

Nokia said that its G.fast technology will help EneCom quickly deploy ultra-broadband access into areas that otherwise would be difficult to reach with fiber alone, such as multi-dwelling units.

"G.fast is quickly proving to be a great way to do this in areas that are too complex or expensive to fully deploy FTTH solutions. With solutions like Nokia's G.fast residential gateways and distribution point units (DPUs), we are able to help Energia Communications quickly and easily deliver on the promise of fiber network speeds and meet the growing demands of broadband in Japan's highly competitive market,” Naoki Okura, head of Global Enterprise & Public Sector in Japan for Nokia, said.

The G.fast solution, developed by Nokia's Bell Labs, uses built-in vectoring technology to effectively reduce cross-talk interference that typically impacts data speeds over copper networks, enabling EneCom to achieve speeds close to 1Gbps. Providing these fiber-like speeds, EneCom can effectively use the last few hundred meters of existing copper to deliver ultra-broadband access to customers, eliminating the need to rewire premises, which can be a costly and time-consuming part of any fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) deployment.

Building off a successful G.fast trial in 2015, the new G.fast deployment will allow EneCom to meet growing demand for next generation ultra-broadband access and more effectively deliver the high-capacity, high-quality internet and video services customers need for ultra-high bandwidth TVs, streaming HD video and Internet-connected devices.
