· Ericsson will provide its mobile transport technology for the modernization of Telenor Pakistan’s mobile backhaul networks
· Ericsson microwave solutions will provide a platform for flexible, scalable and cost-efficient network expansion and management
– – Ericsson has signed an agreement with Telenor Pakistan for the transformation of its
mobile backhaul network into an IP-based infrastructure to enhance the capacity of its
network backbone and meet the growing traffic demand.
Under the agreement, Ericsson will supply Microwave transmission solutions and Products to optimize Telenor Pakistan’s network and sites along with strengthening the backhaul of the service provider’s wireless broadband and cellular traffic, resulting in a more robust
and cost-effective network. Ericsson’s microwave solutions offer key advantages such as
high capacity, efficient use of spectrum, low-energy consumption and simplified operations
and maintenance.
Commenting on the development, Khurrum Ashfaque, Chief Technology Officer and Deputy
CEO, Telenor Pakistan says, “Telenor Pakistan keeps customers at the core of its operations by connecting them to what matters most to them. With this latest partnership, we will be
able to further enhance the experience for our 46 million customers. This also reiterates
our commitment to continuously invest in our infrastructure and guarantee that our
networks have the capacity to serve our growing customer base.”
Ekow Nelson, Vice President at Ericsson Middle East and Africa says: “This modernization
project is part of our global efforts to enable the leading players in the telecom sectors to
meet their future expansion and performance requirements as well as strengthen the long-
term sustainability of their networks. Ericsson is closely collaborating with Telenor Pakistan
in developing and deploying their network with higher capacity, speed and quality –
enabling them to create and offer new services to consumers and businesses in Pakistan.”
With recent technological advances in microwave system software and new radio
hardware, microwave transport has moved from megabit-per-second capacity to gigabit-
per-second capacity. Ericsson’s microwave transport portfolio, with its market-leading
MINI-LINK 6000 nodes for both traditional microwave bands and E-band, will provide
gigabit capacity that supports increased mobile broadband speeds and better application
coverage throughout Pakistan.
