March 11, 2015. Moscow. MegaFon has signed a 7-year agreement with Nokia Networks. According to the document, Nokia Networks will develop and upgrade MegaFon’s federal 4G network using single radio access network technology (Single RAN). The main advantages of this technology are the possibility to increase network capacity and the high speed data transmission it provides.
MegaFon’s subscribers in the Moscow, Central and Caucasus regions will be the first to evaluate the quality of the network.

We are confident that Nokia Networks’ experience will help us make our 4G+ network faster, safer and better,” said Evgeny Chermashentsev, Director for Infrastructure, MegaFon.
