Turkcell’s fully-owned subsidiary Turkcell Superonline has announced that it is partnering with Telekom Austria Group to deploy an MPLS Point-of-Presence (PoP) in Istanbul. Turkcell Superonline’s data centers and infrastructure began to host Telekom Austria Group’s MPLS PoP in January. The interconnection will connect this MPLS PoP and the servers to the rest of the world will support a 8 Tbps capacity in total with 100 Gbps technology. Through Telekom Austria Group’s global network, Turkcell Superonline’s corporate customers will have direct access to their international offices. Telekom Austria Group’s global customers will also benefit from this partnership, enjoying faster and better connectivity with their offices in Turkey. Turkcell Superonline also provides FTTH service with internet speed of up to 1,000 Mbps. 

Emre Erdem, Deputy General Manager for Operator Relations and Wholesale, Turkcell Superonline
The introduction of global players to the Turkish market promotes growth as customers enjoy a greater variety of choices. With this agreement, Telekom Austria Group becomes accessible to our customers in Turkey, while Turkey joins Telekom Austria Group’s strong global network. We will continue to partner with leading companies of the global telecommunications world that are willing to invest in Turkey.

Stefan Amon, Director Wholesale at the Telekom Austria Group
Over the past few years, Telekom Austria Group Wholesale has developed into a Pan-European carrier. I’m therefore particularly delighted to be able to announce the further expansion of our footprint at the very start of this new business year. With the new PoP in Istanbul, we are laying the foundations for the worldwide connections of our customers.
