BharatNet encapsulates the vision and mission of Digital India to bridge the digital divide in our country. Polycab Telecom with GTPL as its consortium-partner worked as a Project Implementing Agency (PIA) for the project in its phase-II to develop a state-of-art and future-proof fibre-optic network in rural parts of Gujarat.This project was uniquely based on Going Live, unlike other normal BOQ-based projects.
Fifth-generation (5G) mobile broadband technology is surely on the anvil as the next big thing in mobile broadband. The application of the technology will have a transformative bearing on how people and machines operate in tandem with each other. Industries will see an unleashing of opportunities with the optimization of service-delivery, decision-making and end-user experience.
Polycab has strategically placed itself as a single OEM-provider for both, data and power-solutions. As in this era of digital evolutions, data and power-solutions are increasingly getting integrated to be utilized in everyday life in meaningful ways, we’ve brought together our offerings to evolve as a stronger and more capable, single-source manufacturer and provider of power and data-solutions.
Di-electric cable-designs that use stranded strength members, placed in one or more layers over the core tube, are designed to use glass yarns in different groupings to achieve the desired mechanical properties in the finished cables. Impregnated Glass Fibre Reinforcement-yarns (IGFR Yarns) are manufactured, using E-glass fibres with branded PU Resin-systems.
As non-metallic composites, Aramid Reinforcement Plastic (ARP) Rods are designed and used as strength members in fiber-optics. The entire concept of having cable-reinforcement-solutions hinges on providing optical fibers in the cables with protection against mechanical stresses, which is instrumental to have optimal performance from them. ARP Rods work as truly efficient cable-reinforcement-solutions, that are usually fitted at the centre or in the periphery of the cables.
RoW-management is integral in the deployment of optical infrastructure and can have direct consequences in the implementation-timelines. After being entrusted with the responsibility of a Project Implementing Agency (PIA) in phase 2 of the BharatNet project for Saurashtra-region in Gujarat, Polycab Telecom went on to complete the assignment with an efficient RoW approval process in the core.
Smart Cities are here. Urban infrastructural facilities and management systems are going to be smarter by the day. AI-applications are being explored to enhance the management and efficiency of urban arrangements. Systems can be AI-programmed to discover patterns, make accurate calculations, derive decisions and subsequently, execute actions with speed and precision.
Polycab Telecom, as a consortium-partner with GTPL, was awarded Package B (Saurashtra-region) in Phase-II of BharatNet, world’s largest rural broadband project, to lay 17,000* kms of underground OFCs to connect 3767* Gram Panchayats (GPs) in 65 Blocks across 10 districts of Gujarat, including their Operation and Maintenance (O&M) for 7 years.
Fibre Reinforced Polymer or Fibre Reinforced Plastic is a composite material, made of a polymer-matrix reinforced with fibres. FRP-empowered Optical Fibre Cables (OFCs) and their optimal application within networks represent a big step in standardization of optical communications technology. As a robust and cost-effective cable-reinforcement solution, FRP Rods have many value-adding features.
BharatNet, with its ambitious aim to provide last-mile digital connectivity through the OFCs in more than 2.5 lakh Gram Panchayats (GPs) in India, has come a long way to facilitate Digital India-journey. Bihar, following the Public Sector-led model of BharatNet Phase-II, was divided into 3 Packages under the project. Polycab Telecom was awarded Bihar Package 3 (B3) to design and build the Digital Highway with Optical Fibres and maintain it for 6 years.
