Totally 18 launched Nokia EDGE terminals by today
17 Public EDGE launches with Nokia networks EDGE
solution
37 Public Nokia EDGE network references
Nokia EDGE network SW delivered to 64 operators globally
Nokia GSM/EDGE HW delivered to 83 operators in 43
countries
Nokia EDGE is proven to accelerate the multimedia usage
Typically 2-3 fold traffic compared to GPRS
Typical biz case EDGE ARPU is 40% higher than GPRS
ARPU
Nokia BSS also with strong evolution roadmap

Strong progress with EDGE
111 operators in 67 countries globally are committed to EDGE
During last 12 months the EDGE operator count almost tripled
35 Public EDGE launches
All major GSM vendors are delivering EDGE solutions
EDGE is proven to stimulate mobile multimedia usage
2-3 fold data traffic per EDGE subscriber has been demonstrated compared to GPRS
Up to 40% increase in data revenues can be expected
Modernization of GSM with latest Nokia GSM/EDGE BSS (EDGE HW) is also
proven to increase voice traffic
Cases demonstrate typically 5 % increase in voice traffic
Latest HW and SW is proven to improve radio performance
Many operators implement both EDGE and WCDMA
With EDGE operators can maximize the use of earlier GSM/GPRS investments
EDGE provides smooth evolution to WCDMA services, enabling early mobile data mass
market
EDGE is a complementary technology to WCDMA, fill WCDMA coverage gap(GSM has
more coverage then UMTS) and allow operator to learn from data market
Latest HW and SW is proven to improve radio performance
Nokia Leading EDGE
Nokia has delivered more EDGE networks and terminals than any other industry player
Nokia e2e performance typically rated as n:o 1
Upcoming Nokia EDGE BSS releases improve the end user experience, operator
profitability and enable the broadening of the services portfolio

Nokia Dynamic Abis upgrade
Nokia Dyn Abis minimises the need for new Abis TSLs
One EGPRS air interface TSL in maximum requires 5 TSL in Abis
Dyn Abis enables Abis capacity planning based on average EGPRS bit rates
Implementation of Dynamic Abis is straight forward and easy
Radio network and its usage defines the average capacity in Abis
Dynamic Abis EDAP pools are created by remote tools
e.g. NetAct OSS 3.1 ED2
