Telecom Egypt Selects Alcatel for Submarine Cable Network

Telecom Egypt and Alcatel-Lucent have signed a USD 125 million contract to deploy a new submarine cable network linking Sidi Kerir in Egypt to Marseille in France. The project, named TE North, will enable Telecom Egypt to expand international connectivity, providing diversity from existing cable routes. The TE North submarine cable system will allow Telecom Egypt to enhance its network capacity to operate as a wholesale carrier and expand its service offering to businesses and consumers. Spanning 3,100 km, TE North can deliver an ultimate capacity of 128 x 10Gbps on eight fibre pairs that will allow Telecom Egypt to provide broadband services to its business and residential users. It will further establish Egypt's role as an international communication hub between Europe and Asia/Africa, and it will also reinforce the city of Marseille as a communications hub with open access facilities. The Alcatel-Lucent submarine service will be based on its 1620 Light Manager IP DWDM submarine platform, and will also include cable, branching units and submarine repeaters, providing direct connectivity to landing stations.

I must admit that PhoneCard Stop have the best customer service. They know how to explain about their prepaid phonecards; unlike other prepaid phonecards sites. Their customer service personnels are so polite and helpful. I dare to say that they are the best international phonecards retailer!
