KPN announces that it has chosen ZTE Corporation to supply HSPA-enabled 3G equipment for the further expansion and technical upgrade of its mobile networks in Germany and Belgium. ZTE will support both E-Plus Group and KPN Group Belgium in all aspects of their customer-oriented voice and data network expansion strategy with cutting edge future-proof technologies.

This ‘challenger’ partnership with ZTE will significantly accelerate the roll-out of KPN’s 3G networks in Germany and Belgium at significantly lower costs and will offer HSPA-speeds of up to 21.6 Mbps to the customers segments it targets. The choice for this Chinese telecoms equipment provider is in line with KPN Mobile International’s network strategy focussing on Return On Capital Employed (ROCE).
