Insiders said that over the past few weeks Ericsson and South Korea's Samsung were locked in a fierce duel that resulted in the Swedish vendor bagging the plum 4G/5G gear supply contract from Vi for Delhi.
The deal is part of Vi's recently announced plans to buy $3.6 billion (read: ₹30,000 crore) of 4G and 5G gear from Nokia, Ericsson and Samsung over a three-year span to bolster its 4G operation and roll out 5G networks in key cities across its 17 priority circles.
Tiwari stated, "As enterprises continue to increase automation, improve safety, and invest in seamless connectivity to meet end-user expectations, existing technologies such as Wi-Fi and Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) often fall short due to technical limitations, cost, and complexity."
With its commitment to innovation and collaboration, Ericsson Thailand is set to play a key role in unlocking the full potential of 5G for businesses, consumers, and the broader Thai economy.
