The delivery includes BECS's Plan and build tool for network documentation, resource
management, configuration assurance and software management. BECS also enables zero-touch
configuration of network elements in Com Hem's multi-vendor environment. This means
out-of-the-box element deployment and automated configuration control of network events
regardless of equipment manufacturer.
"We are indeed pleased that after a tough evaluation process Com Hem has chosen us to
deliver the network management platform", says Ulf Avrin, CEO PacketFront Software. "We
will create a network environment for Com Hem with low costs and large efficiencies in
their operations thanks to a high level of automation and control".
"We are very excited to work with PacketFront Software. They have extensive experience
of deploying FTTH networks, knowledge that is reflected in their BECS product" says Peter
Eriksson, Manager OSS at Com Hem. "BECS provides complete data integrity and network
control enabling a fully automated network deploy process. The system is flexible,
integrates well with our existing BSS stack and gives us tools to develop our own
functions, making the system adaptable to future needs."
