Bharti Airtel (Airtel) has chosen Juniper Networks to execute network enhancements for the extension of Airtel's countrywide broadband coverage across India, the company stated on Wednesday.

Airtel has expanded its Fibre-to-the-Home broadband service to more than 430 towns, with aspirations to reach 30 million households in more than 2,000 cities in the next three years. "The latest network upgrades build on the strong long-term collaboration between Airtel and Juniper Networks to support this increased nationwide penetration into many previously underserved cities and areas," according to a Juniper Networks statement.

Juniper Networks will supply, install, and support upgrades to Juniper Networks' MX Series routers and line cards as part of its broadband network gateway to manage subscribers and services, as well as carrier-grade NAT (CGNAT) solutions to ensure secure encryption across the network, according to the agreement.
