Ericsson has entered into a five-year global framework agreement with Telenor to provide radio hardware and professional services.
The deal covers the rollout of 2G, 3G and 4G technologies, as well as installation, operational support, hardware and software support, and maintenance. Ericsson will offer multi-standard RBS6000 family of base stations as part of this agreement.
Hilde Tonne, EVP and Head of Group Industrial Development, Telenor Group says: "LTE will be one of the major investment areas for us in the coming years. This agreement will enable us to deliver a high quality customer experience and secure the most efficient networks possible for Telenor's Business Units. We are already co-operating on radio projects in Myanmar, Thailand and India and we are confident that the work we are doing together will provide a richer, more stable experience for our customers and contribute to the success of our 'Internet for All' strategy."
The Ericsson RBS6000 radio base station can operate on all standards - GSM, WCDMA and LTE - and offers a seamless, integrated and environmentally friendly solution that is forward-compatible.
