FRAMINGHAM, Mass.-NMS Communications, a mobile applications and infrastructure solution developer, announced an agreement with African distributor 4G Technologies to distribute NMS’ AccessGate radio access network optimizer throughout Africa.
NMS said its AccessGate solution is already deployed in wireless backhaul networks of African mobile operators in Chad, Benin, Ghana, Tanzania, Kenya, Zambia, South Africa and Uganda. NMS also said that 4G, which provides network planning and optimization solutions for the African telecommunications market, will be selling, installing and supporting AccessGate.
“Backhaul infrastructure in Africa is very limited and is not equipped to handle the burgeoning subscriber growth in this region,” said Richard Kane, marketing director of Network Infrastructure at NMS. “By working with 4G Technology, we will significantly enhance our coverage model on the African continent. This partnership will allow us to maximize exposure of AccessGate in this critical market to help mobile operators accommodate their explosive subscriber growth rates while maintaining a high level of quality and reliability.”
