CAIRO, SEP 12 (SEE) - Ericsson and T-Mobile signed on Tuesday a multi year $3.5 billion contract to support T-Mobile US' nationwide 5G network deployment.
The contract also encompasses Ericsson’s digital services solutions, including dynamic orchestration, business support systems and Ericsson Cloud Core, enabling T-Mobile to rapidly launch innovative and groundbreaking 5G experiences to customers.
Under the deal, Ericsson will provide T-Mobile with the latest 5G New Radio hardware and software compliant with 3GPP standards.
Ericsson increased it's market share of the mobile networks market in the second quarter, partly due to faster network upgrades in the North American, where it ranks as the biggest supplier ahead of Nokia.
