Huawei and Tele2 sign European Frame Supply agreement for SDH optical transmission equipment
Huawei Technologies, a global provider of telecom infrastructure, has announced that it has signed a European Frame Supply Agreement with Tele2 as a supplier of SDH optical transmission equipment.
First equipment rollout has already started in Austria for the expansion of UTA´s broadband access network. UTA was acquired by Tele2 in 2004.
This is an important breakthrough in the Nordic and European operator market and it underlines Huawei´s technical leadership in optical transmission. Huawei´s OptiX OSN 1500/2500/3500 and OptiX Metro 500/1000 products and corresponding management system OptiX iManager T2000 form part of the agreement.
Huawei's OptiX product series have proven their capability, feasibility and reliability to the world of telecommunications through deployment of more than 276,000 sets of OptiX products in more than 54 countries and regions.
Huawei currently has over 1,300 staff in Europe and 50 based in Sweden, with a significant increase planned over the rest of 2005.
William Xu, Huawei's President for Europe says: "We are very happy to be working with Tele2. Like Huawei, Tele2 is an aggressive and ambitious player in the broadband market and is demanding towards their suppliers."
