Marconi to Supply BT's Future UK Core Transmission Network

LONDON, March 16 -- British Telecommunications Plc has decided not to divide an $880.9 million contract for upgrading its network between Nortel Networks Corp and Marconi Plc and instead will award the contract to Marconi. BT indicated that it felt that it made better sense to award the five-year contract for fiber optic switching equipment for its core transmission network to a sole supplier.
