LITTLE FALLS, New Jersey,
Oct. 23, 2019 /PRNewswire/
-- Ceragon Networks Ltd. (NASDAQ: CRNT), the #1 wireless
backhaul specialist, announced today that a large mobile
operator in Southeast Asia has
placed additional follow-on orders for its IP-20 Platform products
and services in 2019 totaling over $20
million through the end of Q3 for its fast 4G nationwide
network expansion project. Fully aligned with the operator's
commitment to offer free data plans to its customers, the Ceragon
solution has already facilitated fast network rollouts, supporting
200% data traffic growth since the beginning of 2019.
This ongoing investment is in support of the operator's
aggressive strategy to increase its market share and revenues by
offering customers free voice calls over LTE (VoLTE). The expected
increase in subscribers requires the operator to quickly ramp up
its network capacity to support more data traffic. In order to
increase its operational efficiency, the operator - a veteran
Ceragon customer -selected Ceragon's all-outdoor IP-20 Platform
products, which support an exceptional combination of fast rollout
and low TCO results.
The Ceragon solution provides the operator fast-to-deploy,
reliable backhaul connectivity that effectively supports the
growing capacity demands of its new 4G sites across the country's
rural and suburban areas. By deploying Ceragon's all-outdoor,
multicore solution the operator not only benefits from fast site
acquisition, easy-to-install solution and minimal spectrum costs,
but can rapidly upgrade its existing network to meet very high
capacities, in preparation for 5G.
"This is another important step in our successful, long-lasting
partnership with one of Southeast
Asia's most innovative mobile operators," said Ira Palti, president and CEO of Ceragon. "Our
futureproof solutions help the operator quickly grow its market
share by further expanding its 4G network today and preparing for
5G down the road using our all-outdoor multicore approach. We are
thrilled to continue to enable the operator to affordably connect
more people and improve the socio-economic development of many
communities throughout the country."
