Kontron, CETIN Partnership to Deliver Thousands of Homes Fibre Connectivity

More than 100,000 households in the Czech Republic are set to benefit from faster and more reliable fibre connectivity thanks to a multi-million EUR partnership.

Wholesale Czech operator CETIN has partnered with Kontron Transportation and will deliver broadband routers and modems from Slovenia’s Kontron, a Kontron Group company and sister company of Kontron Transportation. Slovenia’s Kontron has designed and manufactured the Optical Network Terminals (ONTs) and broadband access products that will be rolled out to the region over the next three years.

"This partnership marks a significant milestone in CETIN's mission to deliver cutting-edge telecommunications solutions across the Czech Republic,” CETIN Chairman of the Board of Directors Juraj Šedivý said. “Leveraging Kontron’s innovative technology will help us speed up the modernisation of our network, ensuring that Czech households and businesses experience the highest levels of speed, reliability, and performance."

The agreement between CETIN and Kontron Transportation was signed at Kontron Transportation’s premises in Prague.

Residents will be able to enjoy a great user experience and access data rates of up to 10 Gbps leveraging XGS-PON technology.
