Nokia Networks enhances mobile broadband offerings

Nokia Networks – targeting its telecom operator clients – will enhance its mobile broadband offerings shortly.

The new additions will focus on software, services and some future technologies, said Nokia Networks in a statement.

The Finland-based Nokia Networks said it will add the capacity and flexibility of cloud technologies to operators’ networks with commercial, standardized NFV (Network Function Virtualization) and strengthen the migration path to telecom cloud.

The new mobile broadband solutions will also address capacity and increase in the speed of networks with LTE-Advanced, for both FDD-LTE and TD-LTE operators.

Telecom operators will be able to build wider and higher density coverage, extending macro coverage, adding new small cell types and making the most of every available radio access, complemented by advanced services including 3D planning.

The mobile broadband offering will enable telecoms to increase operator agility and reduce total costs by introducing a pioneering approach: offering advanced network management tools as a Managed Service.

Nokia Networks said the new solutions will make customer care easier to implement, reduce the number of calls to customer care centers as well as ensure that customer queries can be answered with detailed facts and resolved quickly.

Phil Twist, head of Nokia Networks portfolio marketing, said: “The advances we are launching, all developed and delivered to our exacting quality standards, will drive the development of operators’ performance edge across their technology, operations and business. We’ll be sharing the details over the coming days.”

Improving customer experience is significant because a Nokia Networks 2014 Acquisition and Retention Study shows that 40 percent of customers globally are thinking about switching operators in the next 12 months.
