The frame agreements enable Ericsson to supply CDMA2000 450 MHz terminals as part of an end-to-end product and service offering. In addition, the companies have agreed to cooperate in the further development, testing and customization of CDMA2000 products as particular supply opportunities arise. Testing and features will include fixed wireless capability for CDMA2000 1X and 1xEV-DO, PTT capability, and R-UIM capability, among others.

"Ericsson is committed to providing advanced CDMA2000 solutions that ensure our customers can successfully meet the demand for capacity growth cost-effectively," said Egil Gronstad, vice president, Product Line Management with Ericsson Mobile Systems CDMA. "Adding CDMA2000 450 MHz terminals to our portfolio will ensure a well-tested, integrated, end-to-end solution that delivers value-added services to our customers and enables fast and easy deployment."

Many operators with spectrum in the 450 MHz frequency are replacing their existing analog NMT450 networks with CDMA2000, thereby enabling them to deploy state-of-the-art technology with clear voice calls and data capabilities with higher capacity. It is also expected that many countries will allocate new spectrum for CDMA2000 450 MHz.

Ericsson's 450 MHz CDMA2000 solution is a cost-effective 3G solution based on industry leading, true 3G platforms that support 1X and 1xEV-DO. The solution is the next step in Ericsson's recently launched Expander offering, which is designed to improve scalability and provide cost-effective solutions for high growth markets.
