Nokia Siemens Networks has announced that it is currently in the midst of a network upgrade for Hutchison 3G Ireland to expand its HSPA network and add the flat network architecture solution known as I-HSPA, a technology optimized for carrying huge volumes of data traffic, with its all-Internet Protocol (IP) backhaul.
Under a three-year contract, Nokia Siemens Networks has already started to replace 3’s legacy radio network with it’s energy-efficient 3G connectivity solution.
“We are very pleased to extend and consolidate our partnership with this important agreement,” said Sampsa Lahtinen, Head for West Europe at Nokia Siemens Networks. “We are also glad that our innovative solutions which simplify mobile networks, like the Flexi Base Station and Internet-HSPA, will provide the Irish consumers with a fast, reliable broadband experience.”
Nokia Siemens Networks are also providing 3 with the NetAct network management and service management solution for maximizing network performance.
