Ericsson builds foundation to launch 3G services in Finland
October 17, 2003
Ericsson and Finnish 2G have signed a contract to extend their frame
agreement on mobile network infrastructure deliveries. This agreement
enables the operator to build a 3G network to launch new mobile services.
Ericsson is currently the main supplier of Finnish 2G and the extended
frame agreement reinforces the existing relationship between the two companies.
Under the agreement, Ericsson will provide Finnish 2G with mobile network
solutions for GSM, GPRS, EDGE and WCDMA as well as Intelligent Network
services like mobile positioning, and related services.
"This agreement allows us to build up our nationwide mobile phone network
by integrating the latest technologies, and to deploy a 3G mobile network
supplied by the industry leader," says Seppo Hänninen, Managing Director
of Finnish 2G.
"The extended agreement is a token of Ericsson's and Finnish 2G's strategic
co-operation, and it constitutes a firm foundation for the operator to
grow and further increase their market share," says Kjell Forsén, President,
Ericsson Finland.
The history of Ericsson's and Finnish 2G's co-operation goes back to
the year 2000 when the operator began constructing a nationwide mobile
network. At present, the mobile network covers over 99 % of the population
in Finland.
