Next-Generation Mobile Broadband Solution to be Deployed
KDDI, Japan’s second largest cellular operator, will deploy a next-generation Long-Term Evolution (LTE) wireless network using a core networking solution from Hitachi collaborating with Nortel.
The new LTE network from Hitachi and Nortel will provide an overlay to the existing CDMA mobile network, enabling instant access to the bandwidth-intense multimedia content and applications demanded by KDDI’s tech savvy 30 million mobile consumers and business users. The network will significantly improve user experience through greatly reduced download time for music and video services as well as providing anywhere, anytime access to bandwidth-hungry applications such as video, real-time mobile games and online services. The network will also help lower costs for KDDI and ensure seamless interoperability with the current 3G CDMA network.
“We chose Hitachi and Nortel to collaborate with us on this journey because of their proven technology leadership,” said Masahiro Inoue, associate senior vice President, KDDI.
“I'm excited by the opportunity to team with Hitachi to deliver the next generation of mobility to KDDI. At the same time, we are fully committed to maintaining and enhancing the outstanding customer service levels and reliability of KDDI’s existing CDMA network with a seamless introduction of this next-generation network solution," said Richard Lowe, President Carrier Networks, Nortel.
