Sistema (News - Alert) Shyam TeleServices Limited (SSTL), which operates its telecom services under the MTS brand in India, claims to have created history by bringing the world’s first CDMA EV-DO Rev.B Phase II network to Jaipur, the state capital of India’s north western state of Rajasthan.



The company plans to roll out the advanced Rev.B Phase II network to top metros and other key cities across India.

Officials with SSTL pointed out that CDMA EV-DO Rev.B Phase-I network is present in several countries across the world including Japan, Norway, Indonesia, Sweden, South Korea and Ukraine among others.

Company officials claimed that MTS India is credited to be the first telecom company in the world to commercially launch the CDMA EV-DO Rev.B Phase II network.

According to company officials, to experience the full power of CDMA EV-DO Rev.B Phase II, MTS (News - Alert) India has introduced MBlaze Ultra - a special Hi-Tech dongle providing data download speeds of 9.8 mbps.

“We started our journey from Rajasthan over two years ago and it gives me immense pleasure to announce the launch of world’s first CDMA EV-DO Rev.B Phase II network in Jaipur,” said Vsevolod Rozanov, president & chief executive officer, MTS India, while addressing a press conference.

Rozanov said that this announcement is yet another testament of the company’s commitment to provide world class mobile broadband services to the customers.

“I am sure MBlaze Ultra customers in Jaipur will clearly feel the difference and I look forward to the day when this state-of-the-art network will proliferate in more number of cities across India,” he added.

 Atul Joshi, chief operating officer, North & East Regions, MTS India said that given the inherent strengths of the technology coupled with the fast growing demand for data services, the coming in of the world’s first EV-DO Rev.B Phase II network to India is immensely significant.

Joshi said that with this state-of-the-art network technology, MTS will be able to offer a far more evolved set of value-added services including rich media streaming experience.

“This will surely revolutionize the mobile broadband experience for our customers,” he added.

Sandeep Yadav, chief operating officer, Rajasthan & Punjab Circle, MTS India said that the launch of CDMA EV-DO Rev.B Phase II will redefine the face of mobile broadband in India.

“Targeted at the young tech savvy generation, MBlaze Ultra provides extremely fast data speeds that will significantly enhance customer experience while accessing streaming multimedia. I am confident all our customers would relish the MBlaze Ultra experience,” said Yadav.
