ArmInfo.Team Telecom Armenia will provide communications and internet infrastructure for the Firebird artificial intelligence megaproject through a next-generation fiber optic backbone network.
According to the company's press service, the Firebird data center, whose construction and equipment are already in the final stages, will become the largest data center for artificial intelligence (AI) in the region. Efficient and uninterrupted operation of an infrastructure of this scale is impossible without highly reliable and high-performance communications systems.
For the project, Team Telecom Armenia is providing a communications channel with a throughput of up to 1 Tbps and significant potential for further expansion as demand grows. The company's next-generation fiber-optic network enables servicing the most demanding AI and high-performance computing infrastructures, guaranteeing ultra-fast data transfer and highly reliable international communication channels. Team Group companies Team Construct, Team Systems, and Team Energy are also participating in the construction of the AI megacenter.
"Thanks to years of consistent investment, Team Telecom Armenia has become a unique regional communications hub. Today, we have four diversified communication channels outside Armenia, fully compliant with international data center construction standards. Team's infrastructure is becoming the digital backbone of the megaproject, connecting the AI factory being established in Armenia with the global digital ecosystem and ensuring fast, secure, and uninterrupted data transfer," said Aram Barseghyan, Deputy General Director of Team Telecom Armenia, during the first introductory visit to the AI center. During the first phase of the project, the data center will utilize over 6,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, providing computing power for AI tasks at up to 110.6 exaflops. Subsequent development phases envision multiple expansion of the infrastructure, for which the availability of a suitable, modern telecommunications environment will be crucial.
