The co–operation protocol aims to provide the luxurious real estate project “90 Avenue”, located in the Fifth Settlement, with smart city technologies and Orange triple play services, opting for FTTH technology, which avails home automation through IOT.
The agreement is a new step towards disseminating advanced smart city services in Egypt. It includes the provision of Triple Play services, which include high-speed Internet, IPTV and landline connections. These services use fiber optics through an internal network established specially for 90 Avenue.
The agreement stipulates providing the project with FTTH (Fiber to The Home) technology, which is commonly used in Europe and regarded as the future of the Internet across the world.
This technology provides high-speed internet to customers, through closed networks allocated specially for each home, allowing customers do all work tasks and use entertainment services from home with maximum internet capabilities.
Using the automated system, “90 Avenue” customers can remotely control lighting, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, curtains, door locks, home security systems, and highly sensitive insurance services against theft, fire, and other risks.
