Freedom Fibre and Inmanta have signed a multi-year agreement to automate their FTTH services using Inmanta's intent-based service orchestrator, helping meet the growing demands of its customers.
Openreach is leveraging Viavi Solutions’ Fusion service to automate quality and speed testing on its full fibre broadband network.
The virtual performance monitoring system. Fusion will deliver an on-demand network “speedometer”, showing near real-time views of the speeds that end users can achieve.
The solution will be used to rapidly isolate and troubleshoot faults on the network. Diagnostics will be automated for any issues as they’re raised by Openreach’s Communications Provider (CPs) customers.
Trevor Linney, Network Technology Director at Openreach said: “Last year, we saw our broadband usage more than double with 50,000 Petabytes (PB) of data being consumed across the country.
“It is crucial that we continue to meet our service performance by identifying and preventing faults before customers report them.”
Daniel Black, Director, UK & Nordics at VIAVI said: “This deal will enable Openreach to be faster and more efficient with fault isolation, to the benefit of CPs, businesses and consumers.
“They will be able to reduce the number of truck rolls and site visits they perform, as they’ll have access to better intelligence remotely.”
