HCMC – Finnish technology company Nokia has announced the first 10G fiber broadband deployment in Vietnam with its local partner Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications (VNPT).

The rollout will connect 10,000 homes and businesses in eight largest provinces and cities, providing local customers with a connection speed of up to 10 gigabits per second.

As part of the partnership, Nokia will provide fiber access nodes for VNPT’s exchanges and fiber modems provided to its users.
