Mumbai, Feb 2:
State-owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL) is to upgrade its more than
32,000 TDM-based telecom exchanges with IP next generation telecom
exchanges.
Time-division multiplexing or TDM is a method of transmitting and
receiving independent signals over a common signal path, while NGN-based
telephone exchanges provide both voice as well as broadband facility.
More than 15 lakh capacity has already been converted into a Next Generation Network (NGN).
In addition to voice and data, BSNL will also provide several
value-added services (VAS), which were not available in TDM technology,
to NGN customers. These value-added services include all-India close
user group (wings CUG), fixed Mobile Conversion, multimedia
video-conferencing and pre-paid telephone.
These facilities will be available across the country to users who have
migrated to NGN technology. BSNL will not be charging additional for
pre-paid services and a discounted tariff has also been made available
for other VAS services.
