Ericsson Extends Fixed Wireless and Sky Muster™ Satellite Operations Partnership With NBN Co
NBN Co's fixed wireless and Sky Muster™ services cover more than 980,000 homes in regional and remote Australia with more than 290,000 homes connected to broadband services via NBN Co's retail service providers.
Emilio Romeo , Managing Director of Ericsson Australia and New Zealand , says: "As we extend our strategic partnership with NBNCo, we look forward to continuing the delivery of fixed wireless and satellite services to regional and rural Australia . The availability of ubiquitous broadband to homes and businesses across Australia will help to bridge the digital divide and support economic and community growth.
NBN Co is an open-access, wholesale fixed broadband service provider, and was created to implement the Australian Federal Government's national broadband policy. It is wholly owned by the Commonwealth of Australia as a Government Business Enterprise (GBE).
Ericsson has been NBN Co's managed services provider since 2011, when it was appointed to build and operate a fixed-wireless broadband network based on TD-LTE technology. In 2014, the partnership was expanded to include operation of the ground component of NBN Co's long-term satellite solution and end user connections and assurance services.
