O2 UK Selects Cisco 12000 GSRs

O2 UK, the British subsidiary of the European mobile operator mmO2, is deploying an MPLSbackbone based on Cisco 12000 Series Routers. O2 UK currently runs several IP networks to manage systems such as billing, WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) and the company intranet, all of which will be converged over the common MPLS backbone. In addition, O2 is evaluating Any Transport over MPLS (AToM), a Cisco innovation, which could help enable it to overlay its existing ATM and Frame Relay networks together with its Ethernet and IP-based networks over the single MPLS-based backbone. In addition to the Cisco 12000 Series routers, O2 is using Cisco 7500, 7200, 3600 and 2600 series routers, Catalyst 6500 Series switches, Cisco AS 5300 series Universal Gateways as well as Cisco MGX 8850 Multiservice switches. Financial terms were not disclosed.
