• 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)
