The Russian cable operator ER Telecom has acquired Bryansk Cable Networks (BKS) for an undisclosed fee.
Quoting TMT Consulting, Telecom Daily reports that BKS is the leading provider of broadband services in Bryansk, a city located to the south west of Moscow, with a market share of 30%. This translates into around 40,000 private subscribers, and once ER Telecom’s 23,000 in Bryansk are added to the total the share will increase to 48%.
BCS was founded in 2002 and provides triple-play services. Its offer includes a digital TV package that consists of 110 channels, three of which are in HD and one in 3D. Additional packages include one that features the channel Insight UHD.
ER Telecom is one of the fastest growing cable operators in Russia and the market leader in St Petersburg.
