Dubai, United Arab Emirates, April 08, 2020:   Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) has signed with an agreement Telenor Pakistan for the transformation of its mobile backhaul network into an IP-based infrastructure to enhance the capacity of its network backbone and meet the growing traffic demand. 
 
Under the agreement, Ericsson will supply Microwave transmission solutions and Products to optimize Telenor Pakistan’s network and sites along with strengthening the backhaul of the service provider’s wireless broadband and cellular traffic, resulting in a more robust and cost-effective network. Ericsson’s microwave solutions offer key advantages such as high capacity, efficient use of spectrum, low-energy consumption and simplified operations and maintenance.
 
Commenting on the development, Khurrum Ashfaque, Chief Technology Officer and Deputy CEO, Telenor Pakistan says, “Telenor Pakistan keeps customers at the core of its operations by connecting them to what matters most to them. With this latest partnership, we will be able to further enhance the experience for our 46 million customers. This also reiterates our commitment to continuously invest in our infrastructure and guarantee that our networks have the capacity to serve our growing customer base.”
