Nokia Partners with Vortex to Modernize Indian Networks with Advanced Broadband Solutions

Nokia has signed a contract with Vortex Group in India to modernize its IP edge and transport network in Maharashtra, Goa, and Gujarat. The modernized network will increase broadband speeds and extend services to underserved areas. Nokia will supply its 7250 IXR series routers and 7750 SR-1 BNGs to replace existing infrastructure and enable seamless scaling. This deployment will streamline Vortex's infrastructure and improve operational efficiency.

Nokia has signed a contract with Vortex Group to modernize its IP edge and transport network in Maharashtra, Goa, and Gujarat. The collaboration aims to increase broadband speeds and extend services to underserved areas. Nokia will supply its 7250 IXR series routers and 7750 SR-1 Broadband Network Gateways (BNGs) to replace existing infrastructure and enable seamless scaling. This deployment will streamline Vortex's infrastructure and improve operational efficiency [1].

The agreement includes the deployment of Nokia's advanced Broadband Network Gateway (BNG) solution, which will consolidate multiple lower-capacity BNGs into a single, scalable system capable of supporting more than 200,000 subscribers. This strategic investment will reduce capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operational expenditure (OPEX) while enhancing reliability and scalability [1].

The upgrade will transition Vortex's network infrastructure from Layer 2 (L2) to a Layer 3 (L3) IP/MPLS-based architecture, improving operational efficiency and increasing overall capacity. The deployment of Nokia's 7250 IXR series routers and 7750 SR-1 BNGs will enable Vortex to introduce higher-speed broadband plans and scale rapidly across the three states [1].

Additionally, Vortex is leveraging Nokia's solutions to strengthen its internal backbone network, laying the groundwork for long-term growth, regional reach, and wholesale partnerships. Nokia's IP edge and transport platforms, powered by proprietary silicon technology, provide the flexibility and scalability essential for sustainable broadband service delivery [1].

This strategic partnership positions Vortex to deliver enhanced internet services to its local customers across Maharashtra, Goa, and Gujarat. The collaboration highlights Nokia's commitment to driving digital transformation and supporting the expansion of high-speed broadband services in underserved regions.
