SHENZHEN, China--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 20, 2014--ZTE Corporation (“ZTE”) (H share stock code: 0763.HK / A share stock code: 000063.SZ), a publicly-listed global provider of telecommunications equipment, network solutions and mobile devices, won orders from China Mobile for GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network) equipment in the operator’s annual tender.
ZTE was one of only three successful vendors in China Mobile’s tender after a stringent selection process. China Mobile’s tender for more than 614,000 ONUs (Optical Network Unit) and over 3,000 OLTs (Optical Line Terminal) was a test of each vendor’s product quality and capabilities in research and development, solution customization, delivery and technical support. Apart from ZTE, Alcatel-Lucent Shanghai Bell and FiberHome were the other winning bidders.
“ZTE is committed to achieving win-win with our customers through dedicated R&D efforts and high-quality customer services,” said Bei Jinsong, Director of Optical Access Products at ZTE. “Our efforts have resulted in industry-leading product performance and increasing market acceptance for ZTE’s GPON equipment.”
According to the latest report on the global fixed-network market by Ovum, ZTE’s GPON equipment shipments in the fourth quarter rose 27% sequentially, the fastest growth rate among major vendors, benefiting from demand in the Americas, Europe and China. ZTE is committed to maintain the company’s industry-leadership in the global GPON market by offering first-rate products and superior services.
