BT is to increase the number of connecting points (nodes) for its multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) infrastructure – the basis for high quality video and voice services over the Internet, bringing the number to 14 in India. Six cities including New Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai and Pune will have multiple nodes, plus an additional one in Kolkatta. BT’s media and broadcast customers in India will be able not only to deliver their content to a global audience and be more cost effective, but to distribute and edit content across regions. BT India says it has witnessed unprecedented growth and customer demand over the last three years, more than seven-fold in bandwidth and five-fold in nodes. Allen Ma, President, BT Asia Pacific, said, “Our greatest challenge in India is to ensure that our services and operations exceed customer needs and satisfaction at all times. Our plans for India are well on track and we are poised to reach our $US250 million target by 2009.”
