Ericsson previously supplied its end-to-end CDMA2000 1X network solution in the Tamil Nadu and Karnataka circles, as well as core network equipment in four other TTSL circles. With this expansion contract, Ericsson will be integrated throughout TTSL's nationwide network.


"This contract further strengthens Ericsson's leadership in India, which is one of the highest growth markets in the world for wireless services," said Mats Granryd, president of Ericsson Mobile Systems CDMA. "We are honored to continue our partnership with TTSL by supporting their CDMA2000 1X network growth and are committed to providing the most innovative solutions and services to progress their network offering and support their business objectives."


"Ericsson's leadership in 3G and their ability to provide long-term, local support are critical as we expand our network and bring advanced wireless services to our customers throughout India," said Firdose Vandrevala, chairman of TTSL.


Built on one of three common, core platforms within Ericsson's CDMA2000 and WCDMA product portfolios, the AXE-based MSC is the most widely deployed in the industry. The platform is used to deliver value-added services to mobile subscribers, such as pre-paid and voice mail, and increase operator revenue. The MSCs conform to common signaling and service standards, making it easy to enter new markets quickly while retaining compatibility with existing infrastructure.
