Airtel launches services for global telcos

August 17, 2009 13:30 IST
Telecom major Bharti Airtel on Monday unveiled its wholesale service portfolio that will enable telecom operators across 50 countries access its services. Bharti Airtel's wholesale portfolio will offer MPLS, ethernet, IP and International Private Leased Circuit (IPLC)  services to global carriers through its global network with a reach to 50 countries, Bharti Airtel said in a statement.

The portfolio includes solutions for voice and data connectivity, collaboration services, co-location, carrier outsourcing and content distribution through its high speed submarine network, it added.

The connectivity has come on the back of investments of over $500 million made on building cable capacity, network infrastructure and international points of presence, it said.

"The launch is another step in our journey of becoming a global network solutions provider. From being a regional partner for foreign carriers, Bharti is now uniquely poised to serve global carriers to and from any part of the globe," Bharti Airtel president (enterprise services) David Nishball said.
