Lucent completes the expansion of CDMA2000 1X network for Delta Telecom
July 16, 2003
Lucent has successfully completed an expansion of the SKYLINK network
for Delta Telecom (Delta), the first Russian mobile operator to implement
a 3G mobile network in the 450 MHz frequency band based on CDMA2000 1X
technology. The expansion, completed by Lucent in late June, will enable
Delta to significantly increase its voice and high-speed data services
coverage.
For the SKYLINK network expansion, Lucent has provided its Flexent CDMA2000
1X base stations and increased the capacity of the Lucent-supplied mobile
switching center. As a result, the SKYLINK mobile voice and data services
are available throughout the Karelian Isthmus and in a number of additional
cities in the vicinity of St. Petersburg. Lucent Worldwide Services implemented
the network expansion to enable Delta to go to market faster and remain
focused on its core business.
The SKYLINK network was launched in St. Petersburg in December 2002 and
initially covered the city and its suburbs. Its subscribers get high-quality
voice services and data services at speeds of up to 153 kbps. With CDMA2000
1X cell phones connected to laptop PCs or PDAs SKYLINK subscribers are
able to download and forward e-mails with data-heavy attachments, browse
the Internet and securely access corporate Intranet resources.
The CDMA2000 1X standard, operating in the 450 MHz frequency band, is
an approved mobile technology for deployment in Russia where this spectrum
is currently used by older analog NMT-450 cellular networks. CDMA2000
1X, a 3G standard approved by the ITU, is considered to be a highly efficient
and cost-effective path for NMT-450 network operators to deliver more
advanced digital services.
