Telenor Sweden, one of the largest operators in the country has upgraded its core network to enable HD voice over LTE (VoLTE), Wi-Fi Calling and Rich Communication Services (RCS). The Operator has signed a five year deal with Ericsson to deploy its IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) to enable these services, covering Ericsson's VoLTE, Wi-Fi and RCS solutions, its Wi-Fi Mobility Gateway, User Data Consolidation, Mobile Softswitch solution and related system integration services.

According to Ericsson, the core network upgrade will ensure that the high quality of services enjoyed by Telenor's subscribers will be maintained as the operator migrates the network towards the platforms of the future.

Stefan Jäverbring, CTO Telenor Sverige AB
Ericsson's comprehensive portfolio and expertise will be a great asset to us as we upgrade our core network. The flexibility and scalability of the services deployed is just as important as their performance, and we believe this will provide an excellent platform for Telenor as we build Sweden's leading mobile network.

Charlotta Sund, Head of Ericsson's Region Northern Europe and Central Asia
Telenor's choice of Ericsson as sole supplier is a strong signal of confidence in our ability to deliver comprehensive solutions that satisfy customers in a fast-changing marketplace. Our solutions and global expertise will support Telenor Sverige in their mission to secure superior network performance, to deliver seamless services and consequently providing the best customer experience. We look forward to continuing the long and fruitful relationship we have with Telenor as we help them deliver richer communications services to their customers.
