Espoo, Finland – Nokia is today announcing a services
deal with A1 Austria, building on the leadership of both companies
in the Austrian enterprise market. In this three-year contract,
started earlier in 2020, Nokia is providing its industrial-grade
private wireless technology and services for all
existing and new A1 Austria LTE and 5G enterprise campus network
deployments.
As part of the deal, Nokia will provide operational support and
care for all existing campus networks, ensuring adherence to even
the most challenging service level agreements (SLAs) and quality of
services (QoS) requirements. With the support of Nokia, A1 Austria
will accelerate the digital transformation of its enterprise
customers. A1 and Nokia have already successfully deployed a number
of private wireless campus networks in Austria, including
installations at Magna Steyr, Vienna Airport and 5G Playground
Carinthia.
Nokia is now the technology partner of A1 Austria, ensuring
high-performance 4.9G/LTE 5G private wireless network solutions. In
addition, A1 and its customers benefit from Nokia’s globally proven
capabilities in digitalization, automation, AI and network slicing.
A1 Austria is a global lead customer for Nokia’s network slicing
technology in 4G and 5G mobile networks, a key functionality for
enterprise networking which A1 Austria is planning to make
available nationwide. Private wireless networks are ideal for the
business-critical communication requirements of factories, logistic
hubs, and other enterprise verticals along with public safety
organizations.
According to Mobile Experts1, the global private LTE and 5G
market is anticipated to triple by 2025 as a variety of industries
are upgrading their investment in private wireless networks to
support industrial operations.
Alexander Stock, CTO at A1 Austria, said: “This
deal reinforces the long-standing collaboration between A1 and
Nokia, including an agreement to expand next-generation 5G
mobile communications in Austria. A1 is now a clear leader in
enterprise in Austria and, together with Nokia as its technology
partner, we are looking forward to quickly rolling out new
deployments.”
Friedrich Trawöger, Head of Operate and Managed Services
at Nokia, said: “As operators like A1 Austria diversify
their portfolios with new services and business innovation to
digitalize industries, Nokia is in place to deliver proven
expertise in the deployment and operation of business-critical
private network solutions. We have had significant success on a
number of executed projects with A1 in Austria and this deal will
further position both companies as leaders in the private LTE and
5G domain.”
In addition to the services contract, Nokia provides A1 Austria
the infrastructure, software and services for setting up the
private LTE networks. This includes a micro core network, AirFrame
servers, small or macro cells, as well as professional
services.
