12 January 2012, Shenzhen, China– ZTE Corporation (“ZTE”) (H share stock code: 0763.HK / A share stock code: 000063.SZ), a publicly-listed global provider of telecommunications equipment and network solutions, announced today that the WiMax network it implemented in Bangladesh in cooperation with operator Banglalion has reached 200,000 subscribers.

 

ZTE is the exclusive networking equipment supplier for Banglalion, and helped the operator complete the implementation of the national Bangladeshi network in the span of only one year. The network supports TDD-LTE evolution and uses the telecoms industry’s most advanced large-capacity BTS 4*8 equipment. Banglaion is Bangladesh’s No.1 WiMax operator.

 

“We’d like to thank ZTE for its support as the exclusive supplier for Banglalion’s WiMax network. Our customers were pleased by the quality of the network,” said Banglalion CEO Neil Graham.

 

“ZTE will continue to collaborate closely with Banglalion to maintain high-speed and stable networks with rich services for the Bangladeshi people,” said ZTE Bangladesh Country Manager Sabin Shrestha. “Our aim is to help Banglalion maintain its leading position in WiMax, and to assist it with launching more diverse services such as VoIP, video surveillance and conferencing.” 

 

ZTE has provided WiMax systems equipment in several high-end markets including Europe, Japan and the United States, and has been adopted by global-leading WiMax operators such as Clearwire, Telefonica, UQC and Packet One. As of the end of September 2011, ZTE had successfully deployed 73 WiMax networks in 44 countries across the globe, including Southeast Asia’s largest commercially operated 2.3G WiMax. As of the end of 2011, ZTE had built experimental and commercially operated TD-LTE networks in 18 countries in cooperation with 31 leading global telecoms operators, including seven large-scale, commercially operated TD-LTE networks.
