Huawei powers live LTE 450MHz network of Ukko Mobile

Telecom network vendor Huawei said it is powering the live LTE 450MHz network of Ukko Mobile, a mobile data operator in Finland.

This is the world’s first commercial LTE 450MHz network.

The global telecom industry is expecting that 115 CDMA 450MHz networks across the world will migrate to LTE450MHz technology.

Ukko Mobile aims to offer its nationwide LTE service initially to the enterprise, business to business, governmental sectors and transportation.

During the next six months, Ukko Mobile plans to launch a prepaid-based wireless broadband service targeting more remote areas for families and locations such as 700,000 summer cottages in Finland.

“The superior coverage area of our network combined with the very low latency of the new LTE technology provides excellent user experience and enables remote workload execution all across Finland,” said Antti Pellinen, CEO of Ukko Mobile.

Huawei LTE 450MHz network solutions enable telecom operators to facilitate the smooth migration of CDMA 450MHz to LTE 450MHz and re-use legacy network resources like base stations, sites, power, and antennas to decrease Capex in networks.
