Bell Turns To NSN for HSPA Solution

Bell Canada has launched an all-IP HSPA (evolved High-speed Packet Access) network, offering its residential and business customers more handset choice, and the ability to send and receive data at faster speeds. By utilizing Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN) HSPA solution, Bell has also reduced its networks energy consumption and costs  
The innovative solutions provided by Nokia Siemens Networks allow Bell Mobility to offer our clients the latest technologies and devices on the fastest, largest and most reliable wireless network in Canada, says Bell Mobility Chief Technology Officer, Stephen Howe. We are extremely pleased with the networks performance and how the Nokia Siemens Networks team worked with us to accomplish our objectives for this new network.
NSN deployed some of its most advanced solutions to enable HSPA through an end-to-end approach that includes the Flexi Base Station and radio network controller, Direct Tunnel enabled packet core, subscriber data management, and the NetAct operations support system. In addition to being environmentally friendly, the Flexi Base Station software can be easily upgraded to LTE (Long Term Evolution).
