Nokia has signed a contract with Deutsche Telekom to roll out a mobile network using Open Radio Access Network (ORAN) in more than 3,000 sites in Germany, the Finnish telecom equipment maker said in a statement on Wednesday.

The Finnish company will supply Open Radio Access Network technology as part of the agreement to roll out a new network in Germany.

Deutsche Telekom AG chose Nokia Oyj to roll out more than 3,000 open network sites in northern Germany, the Finnish equipment provider said on Wednesday.

The deal also marks Nokia’s return as a supplier to “Europe’s largest network” and will see Nokia replace the incumbent vendor in the area covered in the agreement, as per the statement.
