Lucent Technologies Signs Agreement With Andalusian Regional
Government to Deploy 3G UMTS Network in Seville Network to Provide
Companies, University Facilities and Others in the Seville Business
and Technology Park With Secure High-Speed Mobile Data Services
SEVILLE, Spain, Oct. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Lucent
Technologies today announced that it has signed an agreement with
the Andalusian Regional Government to deploy a third-generation
(3G) Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) network for
a major business and technology park in Seville within "Cartuja
93," as part of a project to provide companies and research
institutions in the region with mobile, high-speed data
capabilities. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. The high-speed
UMTS network deployment is part of the "Cartuja-UMTS-3G" project,
headed by the University of Seville, and will enable secure mobile
access to applications such as e-mail, the Internet and company
databases at speeds of up to 384 kilobits per second (kbps). The
deployment will provide companies within the park with a commercial
3G UMTS infrastructure that will help support research and
development of state-of-the-art mobile telephony products and
services. Under the agreement, Lucent will supply an end-to-end 3G
UMTS network. Lucent Worldwide Services will provide installation
and network integration services and on-going support for the 3G
UMTS network. Lucent also will provide training and support to
assist the companies' transition to 3G UMTS and to facilitate the
development of advanced mobile services by the companies using this
network. Lucent's end-to-end UMTS network will include solutions
such as its Flexent(R) OneBTS(R) base stations and core data
networking platforms including the Flexent Serving GPRS Support
Node (SGSN). The deployment will also include Lucent's Super
Distributed Home Location Register (SDHLR) -- a Bell Labs research
innovation that manages customer information for both voice and 3G
data services -- and the Lucent MiLife(TM) Intelligent Services
Gateway, which enables the accelerated introduction of new services
across multiple network types. Lucent also will supply Merlin
U530(TM) third-generation 3G UMTS wireless PC card modems --
jointly developed with Novatel Wireless (NASDAQ:NVTL) -- which
support high-speed data connections on laptops, PDAs and other
mobile devices. "Our research has found that there is considerable
enterprise demand for high-speed data services," said David
Poticny, president of Lucent Technologies Europe. "The
implementation of 3G UMTS within the Seville Business &
Technology Park will enable business users to access all the
applications they normally use at their desk -- from anywhere
within the park -- with the same level of security they experience
in their office." The Seville Business and Technology Park is home
to over 200 companies hosting approximately 8,000 business
professionals and was opened in 1993 as a centre for technological
development and innovation. The UMTS network will operate in
spectrum provided by Vodafone, and will be supported by the ETICOM
(Association of Information Technologies and Telecommunications
Firms in Andalusia). "The commercial deployment of secure
high-speed mobile data services within the park will draw new local
and international companies to this region," said Miguel Florencio,
director of the University of Seville. "High-speed data services
will provide the park with significant competitive and
technological advantages. We look forward to working with Lucent as
we develop our 3G UMTS capabilities." Lucent also has various UMTS
pilot network deployments underway in Europe and North America.
