"This two-year frame agreement extends our relationship with Telenor," says Finn Erik Hermansen, General Manager, Networks, Nokia. "We are confident that Nokia's transmission solutions for fixed and mobile broadband networks will help Telenor maintain a high-capacity network cost-efficiently."

Nokia Hopper microwave radios come in a wide product range, with over 200,000 such radios in use today all over the world.
