CDMA2000 IP solution and 3G UMTS 1900/850 solution on Huawei

March 14, 2005

Huawei Technologies announced that its advanced CDMA2000 IP distributed solution is now available on its Next-Generation Network (NGN) platform. The powerful combination of CDMA 2000 and Huawei's NGN utilizes IP transmission and the NGN's distributed architecture, enabling network operators to deploy existing and new services while reducing capital outlay and operating expenses.

Huawei's CDMA2000/NGN solution can scale to 1.8 million subscribers in three cabinets with a BHCA (Busy Hour Call Attempts) of 2.7 million, meeting client demands both today and well into the future. The CDMA2000 distributed base transceiver station separates cell site units into extremely compact modular units that can be installed in- or outdoors on poles, towers, or site walls. The result is better use of existing space, reduced construction cost and faster deployment. This NGN-based solution also enables a centralized mobile switching center function for control and deployment of new services from a single point, reducing operational and management costs.

Huawei's CDMA2000 solution now serves more than 50 countries including the United States, while its NGN solution is used by more than 30 operators in more than 20 countries throughout the world. According to a June 2004 report by Dittberner Associates, an international market research and consulting firm specializing in the telecommunications industry, "Huawei Technologies was the leading Next Generation voice equipment supplier in the 1st quarter of 2004 with over 31% market share in voice-over-packet port shipments."

3G UMTS 1900/850 Solution Available in North America

Huawei's 3G UMTS solution is already deployed and working in several international networks, including Telfort, Netherlands and SUNDAY of Hong Kong. With today's announcement, GSM operators within North America now have a migration path to UMTS that will be able to reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) through faster network deployment, lower power consumption, reduced equipment footprint, improved transport utilization, and less labor.

Huawei's innovative distributed Node B approach modularizes base station equipment according to function, which results in a significant reduction in physical packaging, allowing operators to maximize the use of space in existing cell sites. This practically eliminates the need for site acquisition or expansion. By adopting the approach, operators can improve network quality and reduce their operational expenses when deploying 3G UMTS networks.

Huawei's total UMTS solutions support high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) at a peak rate of 14.4Mbps, and the company plans to launch a HSDPA data card in Q4 2005.

As the pioneer in R4 mobile softswitching, Huawei has been contracted to build the largest softswitch tandem network in the world for China Mobile Corp. Annual shipments of softswitches in 2004 reached 100,000 E1 ports and 12,000,000 subscriber local exchanges.
