- Special logo unit was unveiled, which can be carried by all builders, who have deployed the
technology

Going forward, the Connect-Huawei strategic tie-up will bring the wide range of telecom solutions for Connect Enterprise users, largely Corporate, Builders and Architects across Punjab.
The inspiration behind the tie-up came from the fact that it is usually very difficult for a customer to source hardware and connectivity solutions from different companies. Creating synergy between different operators is also a challenge. With the coming together of the two companies, it would become extremely convenient and cost effective for all enterprise customers. The tie-up will enable CONNECT to offer complete communications solutions along with data and voice connectivity. Enterprise customers across Punjab can take advantage of the superior internet services with the best in class telecommunication solutions, provided all under one roof. Key products include video conferencing equipment, firewalls and security, data storage, routers and switches etc.
