Tata Communications, Nawras go-live with Oman to India TGN-Gulf Cable system

VARINDIA- INDIA'S FRONTLINE IT MAGAZINE

Tata Communications and Nawras have launched the Oman to India TGN-Gulf cable. The undersea cable is said to be used to instantaneously route voice and data traffic from Oman to Mumbai (India) and onwards to the rest of the world, via the Tata Global Network (TGN). The new cable link offers enormous capacity for broadband and high quality voice services, enabling Nawras to meet the growing demand for international voice and data services from its customers - be it in the form of calls or internet surfing.

Radwan Moussalli, Tata Communications', MD, Middle East and North Africa (MENA) said, "We are proud to bring a new cable system to Oman in association with Nawras. The Middle East is fast establishing itself as an emerging market hotspot for business which brings with it the need for solid infrastructure and associated enterprise services that require high speed bandwidth. This launch is yet another step in our overall strategy to participate and assist in the rapid development of this key region."

Ross Cormack, CEO, Nawras said, "The new cable is an exciting milestone as Nawras will now gain bandwidth to economically meet the ever-growing demand for voice and data services from our valued customers, for mobile and fixed line. It will also reduce international interconnection costs as well as national and international transmission lease-line costs, while at the same time allowing Nawras total end-to-end quality control. We can also now expand our service portfolio to include international data and transmission services."

The launch forms part of a strategic roll out plan to support the development of an extended portfolio of advanced telecommunications services such as global Ethernet, MPLS-based VPN, Managed Security, IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) and global Telepresence. All these services are suited to support both local and global enterprises, which are very active in this rapidly expanding emerging market region.
