Hutchison 3G HK awards NEC and Siemens a 3G contact
July 14, 2003
Hutchison 3G HK has awarded a contract to NEC and Siemens mobile for
the supply of the radio network of its 3G WCDMA-based network. Hutchison
3G HK targets to launch its 3 service in August 2003.
Under the contract, NEC and Siemens mobile provide the major component
of the 3G network other than the core network and supply Hutchison 3G
HK with 3G radio access network comprising radio network controllers,
radio base stations and network management system on a turnkey basis.
The NEC and Siemens mobile's infrastructure is based on WCDMA technology
and is fully compliant to the international specifications set by the
3GPP.
Over 1000 radio base stations have been installed by NEC and Siemens
mobile across Hong Kong. These base stations include a number of micro
node-B “NB-341”, which are cost-effective, space-saving base stations
optimal for the smooth deployment and rapid expansion of service areas.
The micro-node-B is developed as part of the NEC-Siemens mobile alliance
in UMTS technologies.
Mrs. Agnes Nardi, Managing Director of Hutchison Telecommunications HK
said, "We are pleased to have teamed up with NEC and Siemens mobile as
our radio network suppliers following their successful deployment of Hutchison's
3G networks in the UK and Italy. With the installation of over 1000 radio
base stations across Hong Kong, we will be offering our 3 customers with
full coverage in the territory.”
Ben Nakamura, Senior Vice President at NEC, said, “Our fast and efficient
delivery for 3, not only in Hong Kong but also in the UK and Italy, further
highlights our strength, and demonstrates high quality and commitment
of our team. As a strategic partner, NEC will fully support and contribute
to Hutchison 3G HK with its 3G competence and know-how in mobile internet
field, handsets and infrastructure technologies.”
“The construction of the 3G radio network for Hutchison 3G HK demonstrates
Siemens mobile and NEC are best-in-class: when the network is completed
it will be one of the fastest network roll-outs ever. In terms of delivering
successful 3G network roll-outs Siemens mobile and NEC are now the leading
3G suppliers”, said Lothar Pauly, board member of Siemens.
