Nokia Corp. said Monday it has signed a deal in Thailand with mobile operator dtac to offer 5G services in the north and northeast of the country.
The telecom equipment manufacturer said that as part of the deal, which is an extension of Nokia’s partnership with the Thai dtac, it will ensure the operator’s network performance is 5G-ready and allow for faster roll-out of 5G services.
The deal will run for three years and the service’s implementation is expected to be completed in 2022, the company said.
Nokia will also provide dtac with its AirScale Radio Access solutions for 4G and 5G networks, which are intended to improve overall network performance, he said.
As part of the deal, the Thai telecommunications company will also use Nokia’s network management system, the company said.
