Challenge

Stockholms Stadsnät provide Internet, IPTV and IP telephony services through their fibre network. Their main objective is to offer stable, fast and scaleable services to corporate and private customers in the greater Stockholm area. Stockholms Stadsnät’s main challenges include delivering the capacity purchased by each of their customers, usually 1/1 Gbps to corporations and households, and to maintain high service availability. In order to achieve this, they need a future-proof technical solution for tomorrow’s digital infrastructure, plus invested long-term partners that support their business.
