Advanced Radio Masts Ltd. (ARM Ltd), a strong technology company, today, is one of the key players in the infrastructure networking business. Through its integration projects, the company has done a networking business of Rs 67.50 crore. Bulk of its revenue, Rs 58 crore, has come from microwave radios and optical transmission equipment in major telecom build-outs like VSNL, Satyam Infoway, etc.

ARM is one of the very few traditional telco infrastructure providers, which has transformed to tap the non-DoT market. And its efforts to build-in sufficient experience in project management and execution have paved the way for this success. It has tied up with Ericsson for ADSL, and Cabletron for routing and switching, along with its own wireless/DSL portfolio. This year is a landmark year for ARM, especially with lots of OFC deployments taking place. It has to prove that it can deliver in a much more competitive scenario and provide services for deploying cutting-edge technologies like DWDM.
