Within the framework of three frame agreements with Sferia S.A., Alcatel (News - Alert)-Lucent has upgraded and expanded the Sferia network and is responsible for maintaining the operator’s telecom wireless network based on CDMA2000 technology in the Warsaw calling area.
Under the agreements, Alcatel-Lucent upgraded Sferia’s existing base stations with CDMA2000 1xEV-DO technology to enable high-speed wireless broadband data services at speeds of up to 2.4 Megabits per second. Part of the project was the implementation by Alcatel-Lucent of a more efficient transport network to support increased traffic carried over Sferia’s expanded CDMA2000 wireless broadband network.
“Sferia is taking a significant step to expand their network and enhance the services they offer their customers, and we are proud to be selected to help them with this important project,” said Andrzej Dulka, country senior officer, Alcatel-Lucent in Poland, in a statement. “This achievement further confirms the role that our CDMA2000 technology plays in providing customers a competitive advantage in the market.”
The new synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) transport network is based on Alcatel-Lucent’s Metropolis AMU and Metropolis ADM Universal products. Network management tools include Alcatel-Lucent’s Navis OMS (Optical Management System) and Navisaaa software, to manage and protect Sferia’s network against unauthorized access and provide billing information for data services.
Besides designing, deploying, and upgrading the network, Alcatel-Lucent provided network integration for the new software platforms and applications. In addition, under an extension of an existing maintenance agreement, Alcatel-Lucent services will provide spare parts management, first-line maintenance and remote technical support (RTS) services.
