Expand your network reach
Building out new mobile infrastructure and extending the coverage footprint becomes progressively more expensive, with the result that it’s hard to deliver connectivity to many locations.
WTL’s Vivada MNO Extension solution solves this problem, by offering a cost-effective platform for extending mobile coverage, with low CAPEX and low OPEX. It allows new mobile connectivity to be delivered gradually to the unconnected, with a price that meets business goals.
MNO/ RAN Extension
Complete, turnkey mobile telco
Vivada MNO Extension is fully self-contained, allowing deployment in areas with no, or intermittent local power. It includes multiple backhaul and interconnection options, ensuring that it integrates seamlessly with the macro network.
Offering LTE and GSM support, it provides full voice, data and SMS access, meeting the needs of consumers, businesses and IoT applications, and ensuring that MNOs can deliver a complete range of services.

- Small cell from 1 TRX to 6 TRX
- Solar power options
- 2G, 4G or innovative combined 2/ 4G solution
- Easy interconnection with any vendor core, via AoIP / S interfaces
- Real-time traffic tracking for per-usage charging
Advantages of Vivada MNO Extension
Plug-and-play cellular growth
Grow your footprint, one cell at a time
Vivada MNO Extensions offer a completely modular approach, allowing MNOs to extend their footprint, easily and gracefully. Cell sites do not need to be contiguous, as the diverse range of backhaul technologies means they can be spread across different target areas. As a result, MNOs can target coverage extension with pinpoint accuracy.
Flexible backhaul
Connect directly to existing network via fibre or enable satellite connectivity for remote deployment. Optimised voice transport to maximise capacity and reduce costs.
Self-contained
Solar power options, with low footprint and no cooling requirements, reducing OPEX, maintenance and infrastructure requirements.
Flexible interconnect
Easily connect to EPC or IMS core, with full integration to OSS/BSS and real-time charging systems for pre-paid access.
Despite the goals of regulators and ministries to deliver telecommunications services to the widest number of people at affordable prices, many rural communities in Africa remain unconnected.
