China Mobile Hong Kong(CMHK) and Huawei recently announced a strategic partnership for establishing a LTE-Advanced Pro network.
Leveraging Huawei’s innovative network technology, CMHK’s existing TD-LTE / LTE FDD converged network will be fully upgraded to a 4.5G network. CMHK, in collaboration with Huawei Hong Kong, is ambitious to create a milestone in 4.5G network and forge ahead towards the new era of 5G technology, further strengthening its competitive advantages by providing customers with an unparalleled mobile network experience.
In October 2015, 3GPP officially named LTE-Advanced Pro as the new LTE standard, which is also the official name of 4.5G. Following the implementation of a number of robust network optimization projects in 2016, CMHK has ambitiously kicked off its 4.5G network roadmap by employing Huawei’s industry leading 4.5G technology and network solution under the strategic partnership agreement. The upgrade is aimed at innovating a new milestone in mobile network development in Hong Kong, offering customers a superior user experience, as well as advancing towards the 5G technology evolution.
In the network era of pursuing leading-edge technology, CMHK is confident in the future development of mobile networks, and will continue to be customer-focused, seize the 4.5G network-driven opportunities to offer smoother and innovative services, as well as solidly moving forward to the new era of 5G network by leveraging NFV technology.
