Alcatel Eyes China's Broadband Wireless Network Market
Dominique de Boisseson, chairman and CEO of Alcatel China, said on February 18 that the Company is well positioned to capitalize on the explosive market opportunity in China by anticipating the upcoming granting of broadband wireless licenses
Alcatel entered China in 1983 and has established 13 joint ventures and six solely-owned enterprises and five R&D centers with their business covering telecom in an all-round way.
Alcatel is actively engaged in pre-licensing trials with a significant number of potential licensees, giving the company a first to market advantage. The pre-license trials, which include both Alcatel LMDS (local multipoint distribution service) and Alcatel Wireless IP, will enable service providers who receive licenses to immediately begin delivering revenue generating services once the spectrum is allocated.
Dominique de Boisseson said: "The emerging broadband wireless industry in China represents an incredible opportunity, and Alcatel is fully committed to providing the technology and support to enable service providers to quickly and cost-effectively begin delivering revenue generating services. With ongoing trials of both our LMDS and Wireless IP solutions, Alcatel is looking forward to capturing a significant portion of the broadband wireless business in China in the coming year."
Alcatel will participate with customers in broadband wireless case study presentations at the China Broadband Access International Summit 2001 scheduled in Beijing February 26 to 28, 2001.
