The Canadian telco is deployingd Enablence’s BroadAccess Multi-Service Access Platform (MSAP) to support residential voice, video and data services. The upgrade to Wightman Telecom’s legacy digital central office and outside plant infrastructure will be a gradual migration to fiber-to-the-home technology that helps the carrier spread costs over several years while leveraging investments in existing copper lines.
Through Wightman’s ILEC and CLEC operations, the company has a total of 23,000 residential and business customers in 17 southwestern Ontario-based exchanges. In the past, the company has deployed gear from Occam Networks (since acquired by Calix) and MetaSwitch.
Enablence earlier this month announced a deployment with U.S. independent telco Valley Telephone Cooperative.
