U.S. telecom gear maker Lucent Technologies said Tuesday it has won a US$98.5 million contract to provide CDMA network services to China’s No. 2 mobile operator, China Unicom.
Under the contract with China Unicom, which operates a GSM and a CDMA wireless system, Lucent will supply services support to the third phase of the Chinese firm’s CDMA network expansion in Guangdong, it said in a statement.
CDMA, or Code Division Multiple Access, is a wireless transmission standard that competes globally with GSM, or Global System for Mobile Communications.
Lucent said its services would allow China Unicom to offer services such as video-on-demand and high-speed Internet access.
