NTL has signed a deal with Alcatel to build a Metro Ethernet Transport Network.
The deal will enable NTL to expand its business Ethernet services to around 260 points of presence in the UK.
"NTL maintains the highest levels of technical expertise and personal service and we saw a best-of-breed portfolio and similar action-oriented attitude reflected by Alcatel," said NTL's director of network service development Jerry Iggleden. "With the largest privately built network in the country, and a significant FTSE 100 customer base, we must deliver the absolute finest performance and reliability. We are confident we can continue to do so as we build out our Metro Ethernet Transport Network based on Alcatel's solution."
