ZTE , Iberbanda deploy Spain's First WiMAX network

ZTE Corporation has announced the deployment of Spain's first WiMAX 802.16e network with Iberbanda, a Spanish broadband telecommunication operator. The initiative will provide high-speed broadband access services. The deal follows an existing agreement signed between ZTE and Iberbanda in December 2009 to supply 500 WiMAX base stations for two years to provide high-speed broadband services to the rural parts of Spain.

ZTE has built the largest 2.3G WiMAX commercial network in Southeast Asia with 170,000 subscribers.
