Over 850 routers to deliver a single routing platform for Galileo India, the travel distribution arm of ITQ
Allied Telesyn, one of the world’s leading companies in the networking industry, today announced that Galileo India has begun deployment of a network solution from Allied Telesyn to better service levels and lower the cost of ownership and operations.
Allied Telesyn has been engaged to provide over 850 AT-AR300 series routers across the country within a year. Delivery to Galileo will be staged in 3 phases. The first and second phase of the project was recently deployed successfully with 350 routers installed across the 6 metros. This new network infrastructure is intended to replace the existing set-up from SITA. Galileo supports an agent network of over 4000 agents across India over a range of mixed media not limited to leased lines, ISDN, VSAT, broadband, analogue dialup etc.
Commenting on the order, Mr. Rajesh Sahore, India Country Manager, Allied Telesyn said, “The deployment of the Allied Telesyn AT-AR350 and AT-AR370 routers will provide a reliable network that ensures service richness and industry leading technology for Galileo India”. He added “AT-AR300 series has a unique built-in backup system that automatically establishes connection through analogue / ISDN lines if Galileo’s primary link goes down. This will support Galileo’s business by making the network always available. Another unique feature of Allied Telesyn’s routers that excited Galileo was the in-built scripting that automatically triggers commands and allows Galileo’s IT department to schedule tasks, for example, programmes to minimise time spent on configurations.”
Mr. Raja Natesan, CEO, ITQ said, “Allied Telesyn was our obvious choice due to its unmatched price-performance ratio. Application of this solution, gives Galileo India the ability to offer a portfolio of differentiated, premium services, while our customers gain operational efficiency and increase productivity.”
Some key AT-AR300 series features that can be highlighted are the security services such as the Stateful Inspection Firewall, branch office access that supports multi-sites, and small office gateway that saves costs when an enterprise router is not necessary for small offices. The ISDN / analogue backup feature can also be configured to work simultaneously with the company’s leased lines to provide mixed services support, for example for high-end / low-end user prioritisation or high-speed egress / low-speed ingress segmentation.
