Telia Company partners with Waystream for advanced digital infrastructure

Swedish company Waystream has signed a three-year framework agreement with Telia Company, a technology pioneer and telecommunications leader in the Nordic and Baltic region. The agreement includes the entire Waystream product portfolio, including 24 and 48 port 1, 2.5, and 10 Gbit/s P2P access switches for both fibre and copper cabling, SFPs, and associated support services.

In 2022, Telia Company launched a tender to procure new access switches for its operations in the Nordic and Baltic region. After careful consideration, Waystream was chosen as the supplier of these switches. According to Fredrik Lundberg, CEO of Waystream, “We are delighted and proud that Telia Company has selected us as their framework agreement supplier of access switches for both fibre and copper switches for the coming years in the Nordic and Baltic region.”

Not only is Waystream pleased to be working with Telia Company, but the company is also pleased to be able to meet the high demands that the leading Nordic operator places on its suppliers. Telia Company has a strong focus on quality, functionality, availability, and cost control as it builds next-generation fibre networks for its customers.

One factor that may have influenced Telia Company’s decision to work with Waystream is the company’s commitment to sustainability. Waystream’s access switches are 100% climate neutral, and the company has recently moved most of its production back to Sweden. Fredrik Lundberg notes that “it is important that everyone in the fibre and telecom industry takes their environmental responsibility, and we appreciate that Telia shares our values in the field.”

Under the framework agreement, there are no guaranteed volumes or contract values to be communicated. Instead, these will be ordered as needed.
