Telecom Lead Europe: ZTE has signed a global frame
agreement with Telenor to supply ZTE power systems for the operator’s base
stations.
ZTE will provide nine Telenor business units in Norway,
Sweden, Denmark, Hungary, Montenegro, Malaysia, Thailand, Pakistan and
Bangladesh with DC power systems (rectifiers) through to the end of 2013.
Telenor Group has 140 million mobile subscribers and
mobile operations in 11 markets. It also has 31.7 percent stake in
VimpelComwhich that operates in 19 additional markets.
As the largest mobile service provider in Northern Europe
with the fastest rate of subscriber growth in the world, Telenor Group began
the centralized procurement of power systems last year, to obtain the best
combination of price and performance for power solutions in different markets
from long-term suppliers.
ZTE proposed high-efficiency DC power systems optimized
according to the low TCO design concept set out in ZTE’s Efficient Matrix. This
solution combines high-efficiency modules with compact design, reducing both
space requirements and power consumption. In addition, ZTE’s advanced
intelligent network management system can effectively lower the human resource
requirements for product maintenance, further reducing TCO.
ZTE was selected for the quality of its solutions, and
for its understanding of the requirements of different business units across
the Telenor Group, which enables ZTE to provide customized solutions to each
country.
“We are extremely glad to partner with Telenor and
will endeavor to provide the most reliable power product and solutions, helping
it to win larger markets and achieve faster growth,” said Li Guangyong,
general manager of ZTE’s power product line.
ZTE has ranked first in the Chinese telecom power market
for several years and is in the top five in the global market. ZTE has
established partnerships with 385 operators in 136 countries for its power
products and is expanding in the European and American markets, while steadily
developing markets such as China, Asia Pacific, Southeast Asia and Africa.
