• LTE launched February 2013 on 1800 MHz, will be
augmented with LTE-700 in future
• NZ (4,5M people – 30% Auckland, 50% top-3 metros)
Some CBD deployments; Indoor coverage for corporate
During summer a large part of the NZ population move to
beach areas far from the cities, giving capacity
headaches in areas with low traffic most of the year
• Large (dairy, meat) biz in rural areas with poor coverage
Small Cells Business Case - Outdoor Fill-in, Enterprise, Rural, Strategic loc. Vodafone, New Zealand
• Excellent coverage & capacity for VF corp. customers
Strategic differentiation, increase loyalty among high-ARPU
• Cost-efficient coverage & capacity for rural hotspots
Rural (dairy, meat, etc.) factories
Rural resort areas served with better service economically.
• Strategic differentiation in Hot spots & mass event area
• Scope of deployment
Several ’00s of 3G micro; LTE small cells under discussion
Why Small Cells?
• Boost sub experience with LTE in strategic areas
• Hot spots/zones and indoor deployments (Corporate)
• Cost efficient remote area service improvement
(resorts, rural dairy and meat factories)
