Nokia and Canal+ Telecom expand and automate fiber network to bring broadband access to Caribbean

Nokia announced today that Canal+ Telecom, a subsidiary of Canal+ Group, which operates in Overseas Departments and Territories (DOM-TOM), will deploy its Lightspan and Altiplano solution to support the transformation of its fiber network across French Guiana and Guadeloupe.

The deployment will help Canal+ Group establish a future-ready network capable of addressing the growing demand for more capacity. It will also help drive higher levels of automation in Canal+ Telecom’s network and service operations. Canal+ will deploy Nokia's Lightspan Mini Optical Line Terminal (OLT) solution to help accelerate the roll out of Fiber-to-the Home (FTTH) services across the French Caribbean territories.

With its compact footprint, the solution offers Canal+ Telecom a high-capacity, low-density fiber option ideal for island deployments and for serving areas with lower population density. Nokia’s Lightspan fiber solution allows Canal+ to future-proof its network and seamlessly evolve to 25G PON as needed.
