Harris Stratex Networks has launched a complete suite of network design, build and support services for wireless operators in southeast Europe. The new Professional Services and Support teams will be based at an expanded office at the Bucharest World Trade Centre in Bucharest, Romania.


The expanded office will house personnel providing a full range of services, from site acquisition to operational and technical support, enabling the company to offer true turnkey service. The company has an extensive client base in southeast Europe, and has recently won a number of major contracts with mobile, broadcast media and WiMAX operators in Romania and the Balkans.

Andrew Zmuda, vice president, Europe sales and services for Harris Stratex Networks, commented, "Our combination of advanced products, network design experience and on-the-ground support has proven very compelling for wireless operators in southeast Europe. Our investment in creating new services and expanding our presence is further evidence of our commitment to the region and positions us well with local operators. Our turnkey proposition is well suited to the needs of the fast growing operators in the region, who increasingly need to upgrade the capacity and reliability of their infrastructure to meet exploding demand."
