Ericsson delivers HSDPA for Vodafone's Mobile Broadband services in Germany

Dusseldorf (ots)

Vodafone announced today the commercial launch
of its Mobile Broadband offering, supported by Ericsson's (NASDAQ:
ERICY) HSDPA solution.
HSDPA will be available first in the German cities Hanover,
Frankfurt, Düsseldorf and Munich and eventually throughout the entire
WCDMA network, which today covers more than 70 percent of the
population. Vodafone will promote HSDPA as "UMTS Broadband" to their
German customers.
Hartmut Kremling, CTO, Vodafone in Germany says: "With UMTS
Broadband, i.e. HSDPA, 3G moves to the fast track. Together with
Ericsson we will push the fast roll-out in our 3G net accordingly." 
Jef Keustermans, President, Ericsson Northern Europe says: "We are
proud to support Vodafone with the introduction of Mobile Broadband
and to continue our successful partnership. HSDPA will enhance the
end-user experience to both consumer and enterprise users through
higher data speeds and everywhere coverage."
Ericsson's mobile broadband solution HSDPA not only provides high
data throughput rates comparable to wireline broadband access over
DSL technology, it is also offering more than twice the effective
capacity of WCDMA and dramatically shortening response times for
interactive services, drastically improving the end user's
experience.
In addition to the commercial launch at CeBIT, Vodafone is
demonstrating the second phase of Mobile Broadband with up to 10
Mbit/s over Ericsson's HSDPA as well as Ericsson's HSUPA (High Speed
Uplink Packet Access) with up to 1.5 Mbit/s. HSDPA and HSUPA enable
Mobile Broadband services comparable to services over DSL.
Ericsson is shaping the future of Mobile and Broadband Internet
communications through its continuous technology leadership.
Providing innovative solutions in more than 140 countries, Ericsson
is helping to create the most powerful communication companies in the
world.
