Telecommunications and wireless services provider UTStarcom has won the bid for Jinan Radio & TV Network Center's equipment purchase project to become the center's exclusive broadband solution provider and thus step up its network upgrading efforts.

The project will use EPON technology to deploy wireless network services in residential apartments and office buildings. After deployment of the UTStarcom solution, the Jinan Radio & TV Network Center will be capable of providing high quality carrier-class broadband and multimedia services to business and residential customers.

The two-way network transformation project will deploy optical access lines in two ways: EPON + LAN and EPON + EOC. The products it will use mainly include the OLT BBS1000+box, the machine frame style BBS4000 and ONU204i-h. The BBS1000 + is highly integrated EPON equipment with built-in L2/L3 switching functionality, supporting up to 8 PON links.
