T-Mobile USA, the mobile arm of Deutsche Telekom has selected Nortel Networks to provide GSM, GPRS, EDGE and packet core Wireless Data Network upgrades and associated professional services under a four-year agreement valued at US$300 million.

The agreement calls for Nortel Networks to deploy core and radio access products from Nortel Networks Univity portfolio across existing T-Mobile USA network footprints, including the New York, Chicago, Dallas, Milwaukee, Denver, Detroit, and Salt Lake City markets.

Wireless Data Network infrastructure to be deployed for T-Mobile USA under the new agreement will include Univity GSM Base Transceiver Station S12000 Indoor and Outdoor radio equipment, Univity Base Station Controllers (BSC), and IP core equipment including Univity Mobile Switching Center (MSC).
