Networks and Communications

Experts in advanced telecommunications engineering services.

Corporate Connectivity and Convergence

Indra provides the best technology and human capital that allows for business processes to be available, sustaining themselves on communications systems.

Technology: We provide our clients with the necessary systems and infrastructure to support the communications required for carrying out their activity, guaranteeing the appropriate service levels for each business process. These solutions include everything from the data infrastructure for user connectivity, such as networks (LAN or wireless), to the systems that manage communications, such as unified communications systems or IP contact centres.

Indra provides all of the services associated to this technology, delivering closed solutions in which we supply technological consulting, design, implementation, operation and maintenance. Or, by delivering a service that is fully managed by service level agreements.

We provide value added solutions by adapting, integrating or developing each solution according to the real needs of our client´s business.

The corporate communications technological line solutions cover the following areas:

  • Wiring systems (structured and exterior level)
  • LAN / WAN architectures
  • Corporate Wi-Fi networks
  • IP telephony and unified communications
  • SIP architectures
  • Collaboration
  • Network security
  • Data centre networking
  • Corporate video (signage, video conference and telepresence)
  • IP contact centre
  • UC applications
     

 

Core Network Services

Indra provides technological solutions that make it possible for the installed networks to guarantee the continuity and security of the business applications that are connected to them, in this way ensuring that they are always available, accessible and protected, regardless of location and with optimal performance levels. In summary, they consist of solutions and services that make up the pillars of the entire data transmission network.

Technology: We analyse, design, and propose the most appropriate solutions for each need and each client. Our objective is to guarantee secure, efficient, and controlled access for all of the client´s business processes, at all times, from any location.

To do so, we provide complete solutions for a new generation of Data Centres that are based on infrastructure consolidation and virtualisation, following the current trends of efficiency and energy savings. In these client Data Centres (or housed at Indra), we apply our solutions for network security (firewalls, IDP, VPN SSL, IPsec, etc.), voice (ToIP, SIP architectures, etc.), high service availability (within the actual Data Centre or between different Data Centres), management of IP services (addresses, DNS/DHCP) and intelligent applications traffic management (for voice and data).

This area´s offering consists of:

  • Applications Traffic Management
  • Control and Automation of Core Network Services
  • Data Centre Networking
  • Green Networking
  • Network Security
  • SIP architectures
     

Wireless Solutions

Infrastructure and systems for rolling out applications with mobility in various environments (corporations, local government, etc.). These solutions encompass Wi-Fi networks (802.11abgn), Wi-Fi Mesh networks, WiMAX and iBurst (802.20), as well as value added applications on these infrastructures for both indoor and outdoor corporate environments. They are complemented by special solutions for municipal networks and public spaces (e.g. airports), as well as WIMAX and Wi-Fi Mesh access for city governments and campuses.

Technology: Indra offers its clients a combination of innovative technological solutions (802.11n, 802.20, RTLS, etc.) that make it possible to guarantee the adequate service levels for each business process, under the highest efficiency indexes. These solutions include network infrastructure elements as well as solutions to manage and supply the associated services.

Indra covers the entire value chain for this type of project, from technological consultancy, design, and implementation, to remote operation, maintenance, and management.

The wireless technological line solutions cover the following areas:

  • Corporate Wi-Fi Networks
  • WiFi Mesh and WiMAX
  • iBurst (802.20)
  • Localisation
  • Mobile Routing
  • TETRA Mobile Radiocommunications
  • GSM-R
  • Radio Interoperability
  • Radio Links (MEF and SDH Carrier Ethernet)
     

 

Carrier-Grade Architectures

Indra provides complete turnkey solutions for environments that have telecommunications operator environment characteristics (although applicable to other critical areas such as transport or energy), with the engineering development and creation of new services based on experience, market knowledge, and technical excellence.

Technology: We create solutions and infrastructures for end client access networks, landline and mobile operator trunk networks, as well as new landline-mobile converging services.
Differentiating elements: Complete solutions: consulting, design, implementation, maintenance and managed services
Maximum level of specialisation: Proprietary resources for researching new services and the homologation of platforms as well as services.
Service portfolio: Access Architecture, Cable, xDSL, ATM, IP/Eth, xPON, IP/Eth Networks, NGN, IP/MPLS, Carrier Eth, Optical Eth, etc, Transport Networks, SDH/PDH, Optical Ethernet, ETN, etc, DWDM, CWDM

Consulting and Post-Sale Services

We provide technological consulting for network environments and systems, audits, strategic technological management plans, support for technical solutions rolled out by Indra or third-party providers within a wide array of manufacturers.

  • Network and communications consulting: we orient our clients towards the appropriate direction for their evolution within the IT network and communications environments.
  • Specialised O&M: we offer 24x7 operations and maintenance service with the maximum technical specialisation in all the technological areas associated to networks and communications. We have top-level alliances that enable us to have direct contact with the various manufacturers that create the solutions.
  • Managed services: we offer clients the possibility of complementing maintenance with constant supervision services for their communications infrastructure through a network operations centre (NOC), contributing a high value added proactiveness bonus to the O&M service. These services are complemented with a first rate operation provided from the NOC for common service requests.
  • Post-sale services that we make available to clients that allow them to withdraw from the problems associated with corrective, preventive, and developmental IT maintenance, in order to focus on their real business.
