Alcatel-Lucent To Deploy End-To-End 3G W-CDMA Network In Ecuador

[Techtaffy Newsdesk]

Alcatel-Lucent and Corporacion Nacional de Telecomunicaciones (CNT EP) announced the deployment of a new 3G mobile broadband network in Ecuador.  The network is also intended to meet the rising demand for mobile broadband connectivity across the country.

Under this agreement, Alcatel-Lucent will work with CNT EP, a leading network service provider in Ecuador, delivering fixed and mobile services, to extend its network to deliver nationwide coverage.  The new mobile network will enable CNT to be the first in the country to offer its customers ‘converged’ services that can be accessed from both their fixed and mobile devices, at home or on the go. The network will also be ‘LTE and lightRadio-ready’, another first in Ecuador, allowing CNT to offer even faster speeds and an even larger array of services, applications and devices, in the future.

Under the agreement, Alcatel-Lucent will design and deploy a complete end-to-end 3G W-CDMA network in the Pacific coastal and Southern area of Ecuador.  Alcatel-Lucent will also provide maintenance and network optimization services to help ensure a trouble-free network, allowing CNT to focus on their customers’ requirements while taking advantage of Alcatel-Lucent’s world-class operations experience.
