VENEZUELA : Huawei Technologies announced that it has signed a network contract to construct a CDMA2000 network for Movilnet, one of the largest wireless telecom operators in Venezuela. Under the terms of the contract, Huawei will provide a wide range of CDMA20001X/1xEV-DO equipment including Radio Access Network and Core Network Softswitch. The contract, which marks a significant milestone in the strategic cooperation between Huawei and Movilnet, will make Huawei a leading provider of CDMA equipment in the Venezuela market. Widely recognized by CDMA operators worldwide, Huawei's industry-leading BTS features open framework, broadband platform and professional radio-frequency technologies.
