Ericsson’s HSPA and mobile softswitch selected for Mobily’s 3G services
June 13, 2006
Saudi Arabian operator Mobily has selected Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERICY) to build its HSPA enabled 3G network and to deliver a major expansion of existing GSM network, including Ericsson Mobile Softswitch solution, radio, transmission and core equipment.
Under the agreement Ericsson will deliver equipment and services to build Mobily’s 3G network with full HSPA functionality.
Ericsson’s HSPA solution is offering bandwidth similar to wireline data services. The advanced technology offers operators more than double the system capacity of WCDMA and dramatically shortens response times for interactive services, drastically improving the end user’s experience when using broadband services.
Ericsson has also been selected as supplier for a major expansion of Mobily’s existing GSM network, including Ericsson Mobile Softswitch solution, radio, transmission and core equipment.
Bo-Erik Dahlström, President Ericsson Middle East, says: “We are pleased to provide Mobily with our advanced solutions for HSPA and mobile softswitch, that provide them with a solid platform for next generation services and underline their innovative profile in the market.”
Ericsson is shaping the future of Mobile and Broadband Internet communications through its continuous technology leadership. Providing innovative solutions in more than 140 countries, Ericsson is helping to create the most powerful communication companies in the world.
