Chinese telecoms network developers Huawei Technologies and ZTE Corp have won a joint contract to help build the world's largest fourth-generation mobile phone network for Softbank in Japan.
The first phase of Softbank's network will include the cities of Tokyo, Osaka and Fukuoka and will eventually cover 90 percent of Japanese population, the companies said Thursday.
Huawei, the world's second-biggest network developer, together with ZTE, China's second-largest phone equipment maker behind Huawei, will build tens of thousands of base stations, 21st Century Business Herald reported Thursday.
The two companies will build a system capable of downloading data at up to 110 megabits per second, making it the fastest mobile data service in Japan.
A spokesman for Huawei refused to disclose the value of the Softbank contract. The Shenzhen-based company received 65 percent of its sales income from overseas markets last year.
