PT Indosat has tapped Alcatel-Lucent to build its IP/MPLS-based mobile backhaul infrastructure to support next-generation mobile broadband services and offer premium IP services to its mobile customers.

The solution is part of Alcatel-Lucent's mobile evolution transport architecture (META), "the industry's most comprehensive solution" for evolving mobile backhaul networks to all-IP.

"Deploying Alcatel-Lucent's solution will help us prepare for emerging next-generation wireless network services and scale to meet bandwidth demand for high-speed downlink packet access and eventually 4G," said Jin Tiong Lim, who heads Indosat's cellular network planning and engineering group.

The solution enables Indosat to fully exploit the scalability and cost efficiencies of IP in the mobile backhaul network - from backbone to first mile.
