HSPA+ with data rates of up to 21 Mbit/s - upgrade to take place by mid-2010
Today, T-Mobile Austria has achieved another technological milestone in the company's history: In less than a year, with the help of network supplier Nokia Siemens Networks, we replaced the entire 3G infrastructure and brought it up to state-of-the-art level. "Together with our partner, we have replaced our entire 3G infrastructure in less than a year with the most up-to-date system technology", said Dr. Rüdiger Köster, Managing Director of Technology at T-Mobile Austria. "This means that more than 3,000 locations have been re-equipped on site, right across Austria. This project required very strict planning down to the last detail. Our staff, and those of our partner, Nokia Siemens Networks, have done an excellent job here."
The most modern 3G network in Austria
Since the beginning of July 2009, more than 3,000 UMTS base stations in the T-Mobile network have been equipped with the most up-to-date system technology. Today, the final base station in Vienna was re-equipped. "The 3G infrastructure exchange forms the basis for the next technological advances which await us in the coming months and years", says Rüdiger Köster. "This new system technology allows us to provide the most modern 3G network in Austria - and we are very proud of that fact".
