20 Nov 2009 - Iisalmen Puhelin getting a top-notch broadband provisioning system

Iisalmen Puhelin Oy is purchasing a modern broadband provisioning system. The IP-based system automates broadband delivery to the customers who will eventually receive broadband internet service faster. Automatization reduces installation work and enables more comprehensive broadband services.

-New system reduces costs and creates opportunities for better service. Long-term goal is that the customer can deploy the broadband instantly e.g. via self-service. In addition the customer can get movies and other services through the same wire, regardless of the speed of the internet connection, says Kimmo Kauppinen from Iisalmen Puhelin.

-We have supplied this system to Finnet companies and other agile operators, says product manager Mika Torhola from Atostek Oy.

-We have developed provisioning together with Atostek Oy for many years. StaseGovernor system definitely represents the state of the art in this area. We can happily note that this purely Finnish product is really competitive, praises technology leader Timo Hopponen from Mikkelin Puhelin Oy.

-IP-based provisioning solution is technically more flexible than traditional solutions: the same provisioning system can be used with all access techniques in operator's regional network, regardless of access technology. Also adapting the provisioning to the existing devices and systems is easier, says Jarmo Harju, professor of telecommunications from Tampere University of Technology.
