Bharti Airtel has selected Ceragon's products and services for additional 4G network expansion beginning first quarter of 2020. The company is looking to increase network capacity to address rising demand for broadband amid sharp rise in data consumption across India.
The telecom operator is also looking to increase 4G network capacity in urban locations and expand coverage in rural regions as well as prepare for its future evolution to 5G. Ceragon is working closely with Airtel to pursue rapid deployment of its microwave radios, as best it can, considering India's recent temporary lockdown.
Bharti Airtel is a leading integrated telecommunications company with operations across Asia and Africa.
