China Telecom Selects Alvarion for Broadband Wireless

China Telecom has selected Alvarion as one of its suppliers of broadband wireless access equipment for four provinces. China Telecom was awarded licenses to operate 3.5 GHz BWA networks in the second round of China’s frequency licensing process. After intensive evaluation, China Telecom decided on four recommended vendors, two of which are Alvarion’s OEM partners in China, BISC and Datang Telecom. To date, four of China Telecom’s northern provinces have placed initial orders for Alvarion solutions: Liaoning, Shandong, Inner Mongolia and Heilongjiang. Most of the orders were for Alvarion’s WALKair 1000 Multiservice Telecom Platform. Financial terms were not disclosed.
