Orange Switzerland Awards 5-Year LTE Contract to Nokia Siemens Networks
Published on:
Under a five-year agreement, Orange Switzerland has selected Nokia Siemens Networks to extend its radio access network as well as supply and build its network to deliver LTE services. Nokia Siemens Networks will provide the complete radio and core network, as well as implementation, optimization and care services.
This agreement is an adaptation of the existing, long standing partnership of Orange with Nokia Siemens Networks as a major network supplier. The new turnkey delivery agreement covers all build activities such as site acquisition, build permit procedures, upgrades and hardware maintenance for the Orange mobile network.
Although NSN has won this network deployment contract, Ericsson recently won the managed services agreement - also for five years.
Orange Switzerland was sold by France Telecom to the private equity group, Apaz Partners last year, and now licenses the Orange brandname.
Orange will launch its 4G services on 1 June 2013 in 10 cities/regions of Switzerland.
