NORTHSTAR Telecom Solutions has convened a major regional alignment meeting with its key partners to orchestrate the Gulf-wide rollout of the expanded ‘IO by HFCL’ portfolio, signalling a major push into the region’s enterprise networking and security sectors.
The high-level strategy session brought together top executives from EICT Saudi Arabia, Interstellar Oman, and Northstar Computer Trading UAE to synchronise commercial and technical operations across the GCC.
The expanded IO by HFCL portfolio introduces a comprehensive suite of integrated networking and security infrastructure specifically engineered to address the evolving requirements of enterprise, government, and service provider environments.
The updated product line-up features advanced C1 Series switches, routers, network gateways, virtualised gateways, firewalls, and Authentication, Authorisation, and Accounting (AAA/RADIUS) solutions.
According to technical specifications, the enhanced architecture will empower regional partners to support highly complex applications. These include core switching, Wide Area Network (WAN) routing, secure network access, and identity-based authentication protocols required by modern digital infrastructure.
“IO by HFCL is focused on delivering scalable, secure, and future-ready networking solutions to meet the evolving needs of global markets,” said HFCL senior vice-president for wireless and switching solutions Bhuvnesh Sachdeva.
Northstar Telecom Solutions operations director Tony Chacko said: “Bringing together our regional partners ensures strong alignment as we introduce the expanded IO by HFCL portfolio. This strengthens our ability to support partners and customers across the GCC with a more complete and integrated solution offering.”
As part of its geographical expansion strategy, the portfolio will be deployed across the GCC through Northstar’s established regional partner network. This includes immediate expansion into the Kuwaiti market through a newly signed partnership with Alghanim Engineering-Enterprise Solutions, while commercial availability in Qatar is expected to follow shortly.
To sustain this growth trajectory, Northstar Telecom Solutions confirmed it is actively looking to expand its regional channel ecosystem. The company is currently engaging with new channel partners and tier-one system integrators across multiple GCC markets.
In a bid to localised support, HFCL has upgraded its digital infrastructure, launching updated versions of the official IO by HFCL website in both English and Arabic tailored specifically for Gulf markets.
Moving into the next phase of the rollout, Northstar and HFCL announced plans to launch a comprehensive series of regional roadshows later this year. The targeted events will showcase the full solutions portfolio and drive direct engagement with enterprise end-users and technology partners across key GCC commercial hubs.
