As part of the work done, copper cables of various capacities are replaced with fiber optic cables meeting modern standards. In each apartment where the “Fiber to the Home” project is implemented, users will have access to the “1 line – 3 services” package. Subscribers are offered  landline telephone services, high-speed internet, and more than 150 local and international TV channels (ViTV service) at affordable rates.

Wireless Communication Service is provided on the basis of LTE (Long Term Evolution) technology  by Baku Telephone Communications LLC. This technology helps to resolve problems connected with the provision of telecommunication services in areas with limited infrastructure.

Baktelecom provides Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) for apartments and corporate businesses. The DIA service provided via fiber-optic lines allows  users to enjoy easy access to video conferencing, IP (Internet Protocol) telephony, IPTV services, as well as advantages of speed internet up to 1 Gbit / s and telephone lines.

In addition to the capital, large-scale projects on telecommunication network development are being implemented in other regions. The work is under way to establish the latest generation communication technologies and ultimately provide the population with sustainable communication, high-speed internet and other multimedia services.

The process of installing GPON technology is being carried out as part of the reconstruction work in the network of the national communication operator Aztelecom LLC. Initially, the project was launched in four regions – Absheron, Masally, Sumgayit and Ganja. GPON technology is being installed and copper cables are replaced by optical lines.The installed network  will make it possible to provide internet, telephone and TV services to customers. Comparing to other technologies, in addition to providing customers with high-speed and high-quality services through GPON technology, the opportunities to expand the range of services testify the advantages of this technology. Future projects include the installation of GPON network in other regions.

Broadband services based on LTE technology, which have been successfully implemented in Khachmaz region as a pilot project to modernize telecommunication infrastructure in  regions are now available to the population  in Absheron and Sumgayit. This technology has the advantages of high-speed data transmission and the provision of flexible telecommunications services in areas with limited infrastructure. Internet, telephone and IPTV services are offered all together for individuals and legal entities through LTE technology.
