STOCKHOLM, Sweden-Ericsson said it signed a $200 million contract with Diginet Americas to further build out Diginet’s fixed wireless broadband network throughout Latin America. The agreement expands Ericsson’s previous agreement with Diginet from $100 million to $300 million.
Since the two companies signed an initial contract in June, Diginet has secured additional spectrum and operating licenses in Brazil and Panama, launched commercial services in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and was awarded licenses to offer local and long-distance voice telephony services in Argentina, said Ericsson.
