思科正在谈判收购Airtel-Vodafone Idea WiFi合资公司

Airtel-Vodafone Idea合资公司成立于2014年，名为FireFly Networks。然而，业内人士称，由于双方都没有承诺向该公司投资，此次合作未能成功。

沃达丰Idea首席执行官Ravinder Takkar上个月表示，电信公司可能会退出合资公司，并透露自己和Airtel都没有过多关注该公司。

新德里消息:思科系统公司据知情人士透露，印度电信正在就以20亿卢比的企业价值收购Airtel-Vodafone Idea的WiFi合资企业(JV)进行深入谈判。

上周，这家美国科技和网络公司的高管团队抵达印度，以敲定这笔交易的谈判。

Airtel-Vodafone Idea合资公司成立于2014年，并命名为萤火虫网络．然而,行业内部人士称，由于双方都没有承诺向该公司投资，合作未能成功。

思科是否有可能保留现有的管理层萤火虫据此前援引的消息人士称，该公司由首席执行官拉吉•塞西亚(Raj Sethia)领导，他曾是沃达丰(Vodafone)高管。

总部位于加州圣何塞的思科公司在回应《经济时报》的询问时表示:“思科不对谣言发表评论。”

沃达丰Idea和Sethia拒绝置评。直到发稿前，Airtel都没有回应ET的询问。

据消息人士透露，过去2-3年，FireFly的管理层一直在寻找投资者，因为Airtel和沃达丰不热衷于注入新的资金，因为他们对公共WiFi基础设施的关注微不足道。

沃达丰Idea首席执行官Ravinder Takkar上个月表示，电信公司可能会退出合资公司，并透露自己和Airtel都不太关注该公司。

FireFly专注于B2B市场，其合作伙伴包括印度机场管理局、印度最高法院、GMR、富通和DLF Cyber。

该公司的合作伙伴还包括思科(Cisco)和Indus Towers，该公司在25个州的40个城市的650个场馆部署了WiFi基础设施，有1万个接入点。该公司声称每天为250万用户提供服务，其中包括全国29个机场的60万用户。

“公共WiFi在印度不具备价格竞争力，也不是电信公司的优先选择。虽然公共WiFi在印度很重要，也很需要，但它的商业理由一直很差。人们希望思科能改善商业案例，”电信分析师兼Com First(印度)董事Mahesh Uppal告诉《印度经济时报》。

沃达丰Idea可能退出与Airtel的公共Wi-Fi合资企业:报告

与美国Boingo Wireless竞争的FireFly networks还与其母公司Airtel和Vodafone Idea签订了合同，根据合同，FireFly将部署WiFi基础设施，在需求高但基站容量低的地区以及室内公共空间进行数据传输。

FireFly成立之初，其赞助商的目标是解决3G频谱可用性减少导致的无线网络容量不足的问题。然而,依赖Jio一年后，美国以可承受的价格在全国范围内推出4G服务，降低了数据卸载的要求，因为电信公司随后大举投资扩大无线4G覆盖范围，这解决了容量需求。

易观梅森的负责人Ashwinder Sethi告诉《印度经济时报》，收购FireFly Networks可以为思科提供协同效应，因为思科希望利用印度的私有网络为企业提供机会。全球的专用网络已在LTE/5G网络以及WiFi/FTTx网络上混合部署。塞西说:“因此FireFly的WiFi功能可以使思科在专网方面更快地推向市场。”

Vodafone Idea CEO Ravinder Takkar last month indicated that the telco may exit the JV and revealed that both itself and Airtel were not focusing much attention on the company.<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>New Delhi: Cisco Systems<\/a> is in advanced talks to buy out Airtel-Vodafone Idea\u2019s WiFi joint venture (JV) for an enterprise value of Rs 200 crore, according to sources aware of the matter.

A team of executives from the US technology and networking company was in India last week to finalise the deal negotiations.

The Airtel-Vodafone Idea JV was set up in 2014 and named FireFly Networks<\/a>. However, industry<\/a> insiders claim the collaboration failed to take off as neither of the partners committed investments to the company.

<\/div><\/div>Cisco<\/a> is likely to retain the existing management of FireFly<\/a> Networks, which is led by its chief executive officer Raj Sethia, a former Vodafone executive, according to sources cited earlier.

\u201cCisco does not comment on rumours,\u201d the San Jose, California-headquartered company said in response to ET\u2019s queries.

Vodafone Idea and Sethia declined to comment. Airtel had not responded to ET\u2019s queries until press time.

FireFly\u2019s management has been scouting for investors for the past 2-3 years as Airtel and Vodafone have not been keen on infusing fresh funds due to negligible focus on public WiFi infrastructure, according to sources ET spoke with.

Vodafone Idea CEO Ravinder Takkar last month indicated that the telco may exit the JV and revealed that both itself and Airtel were not focusing much on the company.

FireFly focuses on the B2B market and counts Airport Authority of India, Supreme Court of India, GMR, Fortis and DLF Cyber among its partners.

The company, which also counts Cisco and Indus Towers among its partners, has WiFi infrastructure deployed at 650 venues with 10,000 access points across 40 cities in 25 states. It claims to serve 2.5 million users per day including 600,000 users across 29 airports in the country.

<\/div><\/div>\"Public WiFi is not price competitive in India and is not a priority for telcos. While public WiFi is important and needed in India, the business case for it has always been poor. One hopes that Cisco can improve the business case,\" Mahesh Uppal, a telecom analyst and director of Com First (India), told ET.

Vodafone Idea may exit public Wi-Fi JV with Airtel: Report<\/h4><\/a><\/div><\/div>
FireFly networks, which competes with US-based Boingo Wireless, also has contracts with its parent companies Airtel and Vodafone Idea for which it deploys WiFi infrastructure for data offloading in areas where demand is high but cell tower capacity is low along with indoor public spaces.

When FireFly was set up, its sponsors were aiming to meet the shortage of wireless network capacity due to less availability of 3G spectrum. However, Reliance Jio<\/a>\u2019s nationwide 4G services launch at affordable rates a year later reduced the requirement for data offloading as telcos then invested heavily in expanding their wireless 4G coverage, which addressed the capacity requirement.

Ashwinder Sethi, principle at Analysys Mason, told ET that acquisition of FireFly Networks could offer synergies to Cisco as it looks to tap the private network for enterprises opportunity in India. Private networks globally have been deployed over a mix of LTE\/5G networks as well as over WiFi\/FTTx. \u201cSo the WiFi capabilities of FireFly could enable Cisco a faster time to market on the private network side,\u201d Sethi said.
