Telefónica Mexico selected Ericsson to supply more than 1,000 Ericsson Radio Dot Systems in Mexico City's urban areas. Delivery of Dots has already started around Mexico City, and by the end of 2016, 1,080 Dots will be up and running at various locations to cater for the needs of Telefónica's enterprise customers, shoppers, and travelers at the city's airports. The architecture of the technology is innovative and will support 4G/LTE and 3G/WCDMA indoor coverage.
The launch will enable Telefónica to deliver high-quality mobile broadband experiences for subscribers in facilities such as office buildings, shopping centers and airports that are otherwise difficult to cover using existing networks.
Mariano Moral, Vice President for Telefonica Business Solutions
The challenge for Telefonica is to remain the operator that provides subscribers the best quality telecommunications network. Through this implementation of the Radio Dot System, we are offering LTE solutions to enterprise users and end subscribers by improving the indoor connectivity experience with high concentration of people.
Eduardo Ricotta, Vice President, Ericsson Latin America
Mexico City is the perfect place for Telefónica's largest deployment of Ericsson Radio Dot System. The city is full of high-rise buildings and millions of people wanting excellent mobile broadband services, which Telefónica can now provide in a cost-efficient way.
