NetCom BW (NetCom) is leveraging the advanced DZS Velocity Fiber-to-the-Home and Fiber-to-the-Curb solutions to support the expansion and modernization of its fiber optic network, announced DZS recently.

NetCom BW brings ultra-fast hyper-broadband services to rural areas in the southern German states of Baden-Württemberg and neighboring Bavaria. The company’s services include Internet and telephony products for residential customers as well as broadband connections for commercial and large-scale customers. 

 

With the new federal German subsidy for so-called “grey areas” of broadband coverage, the government is not only subsidizing “white areas” with available broadband services below 30 megabits per second (Mbps), but also areas with broadband data rate availability of less than 100 Mbps.

NetCom uses the DZS Velocity MileGate fiber-to-the-home/fiber-to-the-curb access systems in its network. The project includes the modernization of existing MileGate systems, the replacement of old DSLAM systems and the development of new locations and areas. The configuration of these systems for NetCom BW and their commissioning will be handled by  EQOS Energie – a regional Elite partner of DZS. 

Bernhard Palm, Managing Director of Netcom BW
With its reliable and flexible access platforms, DZS can optimally support us in the modernization and expansion of our fiber optic network. 

Erwin Trautmann, VP of EMEA Sales at DZS
NetCom's actions and investments in southern Germany are proving to be truly transformational for the region. We are very pleased to be able to support NetCom with our access technology, innovation and constructive cooperation in connecting underserved areas to high-speed Internet.
