Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise Equips PT Fiber Media Indonesia with New SPB-Based Network Infrastructure

PT Fiber Media Indonesia has deployed Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise’s new networking solution that resolves technology challenges and improves user experiences. Based on the Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6900C32E and Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6900X24, the new infrastructure delivers higher connection speeds, higher access bandwidth for subscribers and increased backbone connectivity.

The ALE solution introduces Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) into the FMI network, which delivers traffic on the shortest path available and enables multiple active paths for more rapid convergence after a network problem. SPB is primarily focused on addressing the shortcomings of the aging Spanning Tree Protocol used by FMI and on improving their network’s performance and reliability. SPB also ensures security by separating different types of traffic into “containers” to prevent unauthorized access.

With their new ALE network, FMI is well-equipped to provide their growing customer base in Indonesia with a network that is ready to meet their increasing expectations.

Novse Hardiman, Country Manager, Indonesia, Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise

We were pleased to be able to collaborate with our partner PT Quinsis Lintas Mitra to showcase in a trial for FMI how our OmniSwitch solution with SPB could help them resolve the issues their network was facing and improve performance for their customers. SPB is significantly simpler to deploy and maintain than more traditional methods of moving network traffic and is a key differentiating feature of our solution.

Damien Delard, APAC Vice President Channel & SEA/NEA Head of Sales, Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise

Shortest Path Bridging is a foundational technology at ALE that has proven its reliability to support diverse customers and industries around the world, as it has with FMI in Indonesia. This technology is versatile, simple and reliable and helps to address the shortcomings of Spanning Tree Protocol. It continues to be a key differentiator for us, and we are glad to make it a key part of FMI’s business expansion project.

Budi Aditya, CEO, PT Fiber Media Indonesia

As our business grows, our aim is always to provide an efficient, reliable network that exceeds the expectations of our subscribers. ALE has demonstrated a strong commitment to our success by providing excellent assistance from both technology and business perspectives to help make our business expansion project a success. We are delighted with the real-time performance and recovery time of our new infrastructure in Greater Jakarta and cities in the Java area.
