GTS to build data transmission network

Friday 31 August 2012


GTS Poland, member of GTS Central Europe, a leading provider of integrated telecommunications and data center services in Central and Eastern Europe, signed a contract with the Polish Medical Air Rescue for construction of an IP VPN and provision of an Internet access service. The contract, for the amount of nearly 480 000 EUR, is the result of a tender procedure carried out by an institution providing prompt medical aid and air transport of patients nationwide.


GTS will be building the complete IP VPN system. This comprehensive project will be untypical due to the specific location of the bases of the Polish Medical Air Rescue outside cities, where the availability of a telecommunications infrastructure is much poorer. This will allow GTS to use its experience in building extensive, advanced data transmission networks in Poland and throughout Central and Eastern Europe to deliver this contract.

The network to be created by GTS will connect all 19 locations of the Polish Medical Air Rescue nationwide. Used by over 530 employees, it will be handling the IT systems of this institution. Additionally, GTS will provide Internet access to one of the locations of the Polish Medical Air Rescue. The whole network will be integrated and secured against external access.

"We are happy that we have been awarded such contract and that our technological solutions will assist the daily operations of an institution that helps patients nationwide in Poland.", Piotr Sieluk, CEO of GTS Poland.
