Nokia has successfully implemented a complete GSM core network for Telefonica Moviles Peru. As part of the deal, Nokia has provided its industry leading mobile softswitch MSC Server System. Telefonica Moviles Peru is a new customer for Nokia.

The 3GPP compliant architecture of the Nokia MSC Server System allows Telefonica Moviles Peru to gain significant cost saving in the operation of its GSM network, by reducing transmission costs and floor space occupancy. It will also offer an evolution path to future IP networks.

In addition to the core network equipment, Nokia has provided network planning and optimization services, training and operations support for six months. The network is supported by the multivendor, multitechnology Nokia NetAct network and service management system.

The GSM network is now operational, and Telefonica Moviles Peru has launched their services under the brand Movistar Peru. The network deployment was the fastest ever for Telefonica Moviles.
