T-Mobile, Tele2 ink site-sharing deal in Netherlands
2013-08-14 09:03:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) T-Mobile Netherlands and Tele2 Netherlands have signed an agreement to share T-Mobile NL sites. Tele2 NL will now be able to access the majority of antenna sites on rooftops and towers in addition to its own sites in the Netherlands. Both operators will continue with their own roll out plans, and operate their own frequencies and nationwide mobile communication network independently. The site sharing agreement will provide lower maintenance costs for the physical mobile network. Both T-Mobile NL and Tele2 NL will be installing their own network equipment at each site, but will share the antennas on rooftops or towers and the installment of other non-intelligent hardware. Tele2 NL also extended the 2G and 3G MVNO agreement with T-Mobile NL for a period of 5 years. The extended MVNO agreement will ensure Tele2 NL customers with continued voice and data services and serve as a fallback solution following the completion of Tele2 NL's own 4G network roll-out.
