Telecom Transport Management taps Intellifiber Networks for wireless backhaul network

JULY 19, 2010 -- Intellifiber Networks says it has won a seven-year, multi-million dollar contract from Telecom Transport Management, Inc. (TTM) to provide high-capacity wireless backhaul to markets across Virginia in support of approximately 500 cell towers. Intellifiber will provide TTM with multiple wavelength services for TTM’s wireless service provider customers in cities such as Richmond, Norfolk, Lynchburg, Roanoke, Williamsburg, and Petersburg.

“Our solution was custom designed and purpose built in partnership with TTM to provide superior performance metrics for TTM’s strategic national wireless provider customers,” said Clint Heiden, president of Intellifiber Networks. “Our wavelength services allow TTM’s Ethernet wireless backhaul solution to achieve the highest economies of scale and reliability. Our partnership with TTM is a natural model for us to serve the growing bandwidth needs of providers’ cell towers while maintaining a focus on our core services and strengths.”

TTM and Intellifiber have combined capabilities to build and operate protected, fully managed SONET and Ethernet backhaul networks. The companies say they are also evaluating other markets where Intellifiber has dense and unique fiber assets.

“As the wireless market continues to move to Ethernet backhaul to keep up with bandwidth demand, TTM has been on the forefront of designing, constructing and managing high-capacity wireless backhaul systems,” said Lynn Refer, president and CEO of Telecom Transport Management, Inc. “Our partnership with Intellifiber allows us to cost effectively extend our reach in metro areas and address underserved markets.”
