AMSTERDAM -- Reggefiber Group BV, a Dutch company which has a joint venture with KPN, is the market leader in the roll-out and operation of FTTH-networks in the Netherlands. Reggefiber has already built fiber in 80 cities, resulting in more than 800,000 FTTH-connections.
Reggefiber has implemented its networks using the PacketFront product portfolio including ASR switches, DRGs (Customer Premises Equipment) and BECS, which is PacketFront’s control and provisioning tool. Apart from building the passive and active layers of its FTTH-networks, Reggefiber also manages the network operations from its central Network Operations Centre in Rijssen.
Reggefiber is one of PacketFront’s oldest customers in this region and we are looking back to a long, fruitful mutual cooperation. In addition, Reggefiber has one of the largest BECS installations with approximately 150.000 FTTH-connections under management.
Reggefiber needed an upgrade of their BECS installation in order to simplify the handling of the entire network, to create more flexibility in network operations and service dynamics while lowering OPEX by introducing a higher degree of automation and network control. The aim of the upgrade was to centralize all four existing BECS systems, each controlling a different network section into one single BECS installation in Reggefiber’s headquarters in Rijssen. At the same time, the BECS software was upgraded from an earlier generation to the latest BECS3 release, packed with lots of new features and a completely revised user interface.
