in the heart of the network

2 February, 2010 - Networks are pivotal components in Orange’s integrated operator strategy. Their superior performance guarantees the best possible experience for all the Group’s customers, both for today’s services and those that will emerge tomorrow.
Business development depends directly on the versatility, execution speed and competitiveness of information systems, particularly since these systems are an increasingly integral part of new products and services.

The Group’s very high speed global network is one of the most extensive infrastructures deployed by any international operator. To accommodate regular growth in traffic, the size of the network must continually adjust to anticipate bandwidth demand, supported by substantial investments in the backbone network.
At the centre of this strategy is deployment of technologies that boost the capacity of existing networks, coupled with the creation of new links, including submarine cable systems.

To prepare for its future networks in France and elsewhere, the Group invests in solutions that facilitate the development of new services, particularly in very high speed infrastructures – fibre optics for landlines and 3G+ for mobiles – that enable customers to enjoy the rich variety of multimedia applications.
