Nokia scored another RAN deal in the Philippines, being tapped to provide 5G equipment for a launch planned on the island of Mindano by new entrant Dito Telecommunity.
The vendor explained the 5G RAN deal involves equipment from its Massive MIMO, multi-band, single RAN AirScale portfolio, along with its NetAct platform for network management and operations.
Nokia started supplying LTE radio equipment to the operator in 2020.
The vendor previously secured a three-year deal to upgrade Globe Telecom’s 4G network [1] to 5G and was named by Now Telecom [2] as its equipment supplier for a standalone deployment of the technology.
Dito Telecommunity is a joint venture between Udenna Group and China Telecom. It launched 4G service in 17 cities in March, with coverage added to Manila [3] this month.
