(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
* Telkomsel upgrades existing GSM and WCDMA/HSPA mobile network to improve
subscriber experience and prepare for 4G/LTE in Kalimantan, Indonesia
* Ericsson's multi-standard RBS 6000 platform selected for radio network
transformation to meet rapidly increasing data demands
* Ericsson to upgrade and optimize networks in the fast growing area of
Kalimantan
Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC) has been selected by Telkomsel, Indonesia's largest
mobile operator, for a full radio transformation in Indonesia's Kalimantan
region.
The upgrade will ensure that Telkomsel's network is equipped with multi-standard
radio base stations for GSM and WCDMA/HSPA(3G) that can meet the rapidly
increasing data demands and boost mobile broadband network performance, while
making it ready for 4G/LTE.
The transformation project includes the introduction of Ericsson's RBS 6320, a
low-cost, main remote enclosure product, developed for tropical climates.
Thomas Jul, Head of Ericsson Indonesia and Timor-Leste, says: "The
transformation of Telkomsel's network will ensure its mobile data subscribers,
especially those living in dense areas, will benefit from faster speeds and
better network performance. This contract makes us a key partner for Telkomsel
through this transformation and further strengthens our longstanding
relationship."
