ZTE to Build Zapp's 3G Network in Romania

(Business News & Technology News, 29 May 2008)

ZTE will be rolling out Zapp's WCDMA/HSDPA commercial network in Romania. Zapp, the fourth largest mobile operator in the region, plans on launching its 3G commercial services in early autumn 2008. The network should be completed by 2011.

Zapp, a key European CDMA carrier and the only operator in Romania deploying this type of technology, has also selected ZTE's CDMA2000 technology to replace its current 2G network, due to its stable performance and lower total cost of ownership (TCO). This is ZTE's fourth CDMA project in Europe, and the company has previously built networks in Norway, Czechoslovakia, and Poland.

The WCDMA/ HSDPA equipment provided by ZTE is compatible with Zapp's existing network and will be used to build a network running over the 2.1GHz frequency and that will be fully dedicated to data services. This network will enhance the quality and speed of services offered by Zapp by increasing the transfer rate from 2.4Mbps to up to 7.2Mbps.
