ESPOO (dpa-AFX) - Nokia (NOK) Monday said it has signed two Memoranda of Confirmation frame agreements with Globe Telecom, a telecom operator in the Philippines. One agreement is for wireless technologies and the other is for IP, Optical and SDN technologies.
Under the deals, Nokia plans to transform Globe Telecom's current fixed and mobile networks into a more robust network that will help Globe meet the country's burgeoning and future digital demands.
Nokia noted that Globe Telecom will transition to a flexible cloud-based network infrastructure, with Nokia's 5G-ready AirScale radio access and IP, optical and carrier SDN technology solutions.
The modernized Globe network will also allow it to support the Philippine government's initiative to further expand the availability of broadband services in the country.
The agreements were signed during the State Visit of the Philippine President to China.
