Symphony Communication or SYMC is moving forward to be the first provider in Thailand with the most advanced and latest technology on SDN-MPLS Network, this is the next generation intelligent and robust network architecture which is easy to manage while help increasing business efficiency in all aspects such as business connectivity, cloud connection and seamless virtualization as well as supporting the Digital Transformation across all various services and applications in the future. 

Mr. Alex Loh, Chief Operating Officer of Symphony Communication Public Company Limited or SYMC, a leading telecommunication network provider, said that the government's Digital Economy Policy that focuses on driving the economy and society on digital technology infrastructure and the expansion of connectivity, these enable the public and private sectors to adapt to digital processes to increase efficiency and keep pace with changes that will occur in the future. The company focuses on its long term investments in expanding and modernizing its core network and service coverage areas to the entire country by deploying and upgrading core network infrastructure and equipment to be most up-to-date technology, by guaranteeing flexibility and scalability network performance for faster yet low latency to all network users.

“In the past, the telecommunication business has grown exponentially due to the transition into the digital era both in terms of increasing usage requirements and a variety of applications that require high-bandwidth service networks. This allows us to clearly see the importance of market growth, and SDN-MPLS Network is the latest technology that has been developed from the existing MPLS network with simplify connection that has analytical and flexible system to make the seamless communication connection well as supporting higher speed and bandwidth by combining various intelligent systems together such as Automatic Route, Management System, Latency, Utilization, Packet Loss Monitoring, and Simulation to assess the impact in advance and inform customers more accurately. This can be connected to smartphones, computers, web applications so that customers can easily manage the network on their mobile devices and be able to control everything centralization and most importantly, it supports data transmission at speed up to 100Gbps and can be extended to 1000Gbps, which is the new standard today.”

The strengths of SDN-MPLS Network such as Throughput : provide accuracy in bandwidth control as users can choose bandwidth they want.  Low Latency : especially in Bangkok area, SDN-MPLS network has a low latency of no more than 2ms, suitable for many applications to run smoothly. High Reliable : stability with a variety of routes and multi-path control to make easy to manage in case of failure and Increase the efficiency of management in various areas that can be integrated with other systems and services easily. Self-Service Portal : users can see the network operation in real time including adjusting bandwidth, tracking, checking service status easily at your fingertips on the Service Dashboard.

For both domestic and international target groups that will benefit from this new network are from many industries such as the telecommunication service providers, the Internet Service Providers (ISPs), mobile operators, corporate customers, government organizations that require high-speed communication circuits to deliver large amounts of data quickly and also banks, financial institutions, retails, hotels, logistics and OTT (Over-the-Top) groups that provide various content services through online platforms.
