SHENZHEN, Nov. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

ZTE Corporation (0763.HK / 000063.SZ), a major international provider of

telecommunications, enterprise and consumer technology solutions for the Mobile

Internet, today announced that it has supported Ncell successfully completing

the preventive network maintenance at the southern slope of Everest Base Camp

(EBC) at an altitude of 5,363 meters, further ensuring the network coverage

quality of 2000-meter range around EBC.

The landmark base station of Ncell is the exclusive and highest base station on

the southern slope of EBC. Since the commissioning in 2010, it has provided

high-quality network services for local people and climbers.

For the network operation and maintenance (O&M), ZTE's engineers have overcome

various environmental difficulties, such as high altitude, storm wind and low

temperature, and eventually completed the preventive network O&M, including

power equipment replacement, wireless and transport network maintenance, and

network quality optimization.

The landmark base station is mainly powered by solar energy and stand-by

batteries. As it is located at a high altitude with severe environment, the

maintenance of the base station is really difficult. In total, there are 10

base stations located in the Sagarmatha National Park area of Nepal, which are

all constructed and maintained by ZTE. Since 2010, the base stations have

continuously provided around-the-clock mobile network services for local

residents and climbers.

Moving forward, Ncell will work with ZTE to achieve the mobile network coverage

of the whole route of Mount Everest.

As a trusted and important partner of Ncell, ZTE has cooperated with Ncell for

more than ten years to provide wireless, core network and transport network

services in Nepal, meeting more than 60% of Ncell's wireless network business needs.
