NETWORK MIGRATION
Risk Free Transition from TDM to Packet
 Maintain strict performance and
availability requirements
 Smooth IT and OT convergence
 Handle increase in networks
complexity
 Manage rise in security threats
Future Proof Evolution
 New services and Applications
 Multi-vendor environment
 Scalability to meet future
requirements:
 Internal
 External

IT/OT
CONVERGENCE
 IT’S NOT ONLY ABOUT CYBER
SECURITY
 CAPEX AND OPEX SAVINGS
 Consolidation of manpower
 Capability of handling dynamic IT
requirements alongside strict OT
demands
 Cost-effective and pro-active
maintenance
 Simplified supply-chain
 E2E Unified Network Management
 Simultaneous supporting Legacy and
NexGen systems
