Inter Venezuela is using Harmonics virtualised core and fibre solutions to power a nationwide XGS-PON-based mobile backhaul service in Venezuela.
The agreement positions the ISP to deliver carrier-grade backhaul, with Inter Venezuela expecting cost advantages versus dedicated cellular links and revenue opportunities as operators move toward 5G densification.
What Harmonics stack is being used for
Inter Venezuela said it is leveraging Harmonics cOS virtualized core, Finu10G SFP+ based OLT and high-density Pier OLT shelf to deliver XGS-PON-based mobile backhaul across both cell sites and aggregation nodes.
The deployment is described as shifting from traditional point-to-point links to demand-based fibre services that can support current 4G and future 5G requirements.
Service positioning: carrier-grade and cost-effectiveness
The agreement is framed as enabling Inter Venezuela to deliver a carrier-grade mobile backhaul service.
The approach is expected to improve efficiency compared with traditional dedicated cellular links, while still supporting broader network growth demands. network redundancy solutions can also be a key part of how backhaul operators design resilience across multiple sites and aggregation nodes.
Inter Venezuelas revenue and network-growth outlook
Inter Venezuela expects the service to create new revenue opportunities as regional mobile network operators prepare for upcoming 5G densification.
Harmonics fibre solutions are described as providing scalable architecture to enable service expansion, with centralised management via Harmonics cOS core.
Harmonics cOS core is also described as delivering continuous visibility, real-time telemetry and analytics across all sites, with the goal of boosting quality of experience.
