Nortel Networks secures 3G wireless data network deal with US Cellular
October 6, 2003
U.S. Cellular has selected Nortel Networks to supply CDMA2000 1X core,
radio and wireless access technology and professional services to support
expansion of its nationwide 3G wireless voice and data network.
Under a new multi-year agreement, U.S. Cellular plans to deploy, expand
and upgrade CDMA2000 1X radio base stations, switching and other related
equipment from Nortel Networks. This will enable U.S. Cellular to expand
its footprint into markets acquired from AT&T Wireless earlier this year,
including Oklahoma City, St. Louis, Springfield, Mo., and Portland, Maine.
Nortel Networks is the sole supplier to these markets.
Nortel Networks wireless infrastructure technology will position U.S.
Cellular to offer enhanced voice capacity, expanded call coverage, and
new data products and services like Internet browsing, e-mail, games,
productivity tools, and instant messaging.
CDMA2000 1X is a next generation, ITU-approved, IMT-2000 technology standard
designed to double voice capacity, and to support wireless data speeds
up to 153 kilobits per second -10 times the rate available through circuit-based
technology – on a single 1.25 megahertz carrier in existing spectrum.
Nortel Networks is implementing CDMA2000 1X for service providers around
the world, and has designed, installed and launched CDMA networks over
varying terrain and population densities for more than 65 operators across
17 countries, including more than 35,000 3G-ready base stations as of
August 2003.
