LITTLE FALLS, N.J.,
Aug. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --
Little Falls, New Jersey,
August 3, 2020 - Ceragon Networks
Ltd. (NASDAQ: CRNT), the #1 wireless hauling specialist,
announced today that Orange Niger, the second largest mobile
operator in Niger, has selected
its wireless backhaul solutions and services to modernize its
nationwide backbone network to 4G. In this multi-million-dollar
project, Ceragon will enable Orange Niger to leapfrog to 4G,
starting with the capital city of Niamey and expanding to other major cities to
secure over 1 million 4G subscribers by the end of 2020.
To deliver on its vision of building digital Africa, Orange Niger requires a high power,
scalable and ultra-reliable wireless backbone network which
delivers 4Gbps backbone capacity to meet 4G services and
experiences for subscribers. By selecting Ceragon's IP-20 platform,
Orange Niger is able to double its backbone capacity, utilizing new
and wider regulatory spectrum allocations of 112MHz. The
combination of ultra-high power radios, and Ceragon's wide channel
multicore technology with Advanced Space Diversity techniques,
allows Orange Niger to achieve the 4G capacity and coverage it
needs, using 50% less hardware, with smaller and fewer
antennas.
With Ceragon's professional services, including network planning
and rollout, Orange Niger is able to achieve faster, more accurate
first-time right installations that will meet its subscriber
acquisition targets. All in all, Ceragon's solutions and services
deliver Orange Niger significant savings in equipment, real estate,
energy, installation and maintenance costs and time.
"We are pleased to partner with Ceragon," said Souleymane Diallo, CEO of Orange Niger.
"Ceragon's proven track record, combined with its leading-edge
technology and services, allow us to rapidly launch our new 4G
network services and offer our customers an incomparable
experience. With Ceragon we are able to meet the growing mobile
traffic demand in Niger with
uncompromised service reliability."
"We look forward to a long-standing partnership with Orange
Niger, supporting the delivery of its ambitious 4G strategy and
plans for a fast roll-out," said Ira
Palti, president and CEO of Ceragon. "We are committed to
continue to work with Orange Niger hand-in-hand to deliver
