Alcatel-Lucent is to deploy 4G LTE and IP networking solutions throughout Scandinavia for AINMT Holdings AB. The company will initially roll-out a complete mobile broadband access network for ice.net in Norway, Net 1 in Sweden and Denmark.
Alcatel-Lucent will work with AINMT Holdings to roll-out LTE network in the 450 MHz band in Norway for AINMT’s subsidiary ice.net. Services will later be expanded to the 800 MHz, 900 MHz and 1800 MHz bands in the country. The new 4G LTE network will allow AINMT and its subsidiaries to meet the growing demand for high-speed, high-capacity data services in the region.
The network will be rolled out across Norway during 2015 as Alcatel-Lucent replaces a competitors’ existing CDMA network with its 4G LTE solution. Alcatel-Lucent will also conduct trials of high-quality Voice over LTE (VoLTE) services with ice.net in order to prepare for market launch.
Alcatel-Lucent’s offerings in Norway include the company’s LTE Radio Access Network (RAN), Evolved Packet Core solution, IMS with VoLTE. Alcatel-Lucent will also provide solutions from its Motive portfolio, including operation support system (OSS) services such as installation, commissioning, network planning and maintenance.
Beside the launch of services in Norway, Alcatel-Lucent will work with AINMT Holdings to roll-out LTE networks across Denmark and Sweden.
