Nortel ties-up with Chhattisgarh govt to upgrade infra
Nortel, unified communications provider, has partnered with Chhattisgarh state government to modernise its communications infrastructure through a new, high-bandwidth State Wide Area Network (SWAN). This will help to connect all the departments of the state. The Chhattisgarh SWAN (CG SWAN) is a hybrid network with a mix of wireless and wireline access supporting voice, data and video traffic.
CGSWAN is expected to be one of the largest fixed WiMAX deployments in the country for e-governance, providing access to 3,000 locations in the state. It will also serve as the backbone for various state departments to deploy IT-related applications for the public.
"With SWAN, we will be able to connect our offices not just at the headquarters level, but right down to the local administration levels even in remote, inaccessible areas," says Aman Singh, chief executive officer, Chhattisgarh Infotech and Biotech Promotion Society (CHiPS).
The new network will deliver high speed access to remote locations which currently lack any Internet connectivity.
