ntttttttttttt

Fujitsu on Monday announced the selection of Fujitsu Network Communications as one of AT&T’s Domain Suppliers for optical and transport equipment for AT&T’s industry-leading IP-based network.

The multi-year selection covers equipment used to expand and maintain AT&T’s metropolitan and long-haul network infrastructure. Financial terms of the supplier agreement are still being negotiated.

“After an extensive evaluation of multiple optical and transport equipment suppliers, we are pleased to extend our relationship with Fujitsu,” said Tim Harden, president of AT&T’s Supply Chain and Fleet Operations organization.

AT&T’s Domain Supplier program, launched in September 2009, facilitates a more collaborative relationship with AT&T’s equipment and software suppliers, enabling AT&T to have the best technologies in place to serve its customers. The program is also designed to ensure that the company’s network technology investment accelerates AT&T’s move toward a network that is well-equipped for the future.
