[...] I’ve been following the rise of Huawei (and ZTE Corp.) for some time. It used its Chinese government connections to build a sizable business in its local market, which it then leveraged in order to scale up in emerging telecom markets. The company that started out selling cheap DSL gear is now a major supplier of everything from routers to fiber systems. It’s also become a significant player in the wireless industry, where it’s been making big bets on LTE and WiMAX technologies. [...]

Om,
Alcatel-Lucent just won an important WiMAX contract in Cambodia, announced at the MWC.

ALU has not retreated from WiMAX. ALU has simply re-positioned WiMAX as a solution for nomadic wireless broadband that makes an excellent fit to provide broadband in emerging markets, such as India or South East Asia, where copper penetration is very small, making DSL too costly.

ALU has reinforced the industry consensus that the natural evolution of 3G to 4G is LTE, leaving WiMAX as a complementary rather than competing solution for wireless broadband, specially in places where fixed DSL is impractical.

BTW, as you may know Om, ALU was selected by Verizon for LTE in all 3 domains of the network. A sign that ALU come-back with the new management team is rather soon than late.

Do I need to add any disclaimer here? ;)
