Sequans Communications, Packet One Networks (Malaysia), and Greenpacket, are working together to develop LTE solutions, including dual-mode 4G WiMAX/LTE solutions.
Greenpacket is a global supplier of customer premise equipment. Its customers include P1, its operator subsidiary in Malaysia. Greenpacket is testing Sequans technology to develop LTE and dual-mode WiMAX/LTE reference designs as part of its strategy to launch a complete ecosystem of 4G networking solutions and devices by the end of 2011.
"We are testing Sequans' system-on-chip technology to develop LTE reference designs, including a dual-mode WiMAX/LTE reference design for our operator customers primarily in Asia, CALA and Middle East," said, James Wang, Senior Vice President of Innovation, Strategies and Development (ISD) at Greenpacket. "We intend to offer our solutions to early adopters of LTE such as P1 in support of its LTE/WiMAX coexistence strategy."
P1 launched its WiMAX service in Malaysia in August 2008 and is now preparing to transition to LTE. Meanwhile, the operator continues to make progress in building out its 4G network and expects to have 65 percent of the population covered by the end of 2012.
