Etihad Etisalat (Mobily), in collaboration with Nokia, has successfully conducted a trial of LTE to the Home (LTTH) to enable LTE technology on 4G and 2G networks using Nokia FastMile technology.
The telecom giant said the trial is in line with the company’s aim to provide the best speeds for its customers by using the latest technologies and is a result of Mobily’s leading position in the telecom and IT sector.
“We have a long and fruitful relationship with Nokia, and this successful trial starts a new chapter in our association, through applying FastMile Nokia technology that will enable Mobily to extend the reach of our network in new areas. At the same time it will allow us to use the existing infrastructure thus helping us to control our expenditure,” said Alaa Malki, Mobily CNO.
“We are pleased to work with Mobily on this trial and support their plans to provide best-in-class broadband services to their subscribers. With this deployment, Mobily will be able to attract new customers who are currently unable to enjoy broadband services. Nokia FastMile will also allow them to minimize the deployment cost by utilizing the existing mobile infrastructure,” said Tony Awad, head of Mobily Customer Team, Nokia.
