Maurice, CDMA down your way... SYDNEY, Oct 14 (Reuters) - Canada's Nortern Telecom (NYSE:NT)(TSE:NTL) said on Wednesday it had been selected by Telstra Corp Ltd to build a national turnkey mobile telephone network valued at more than A$300 million, with service beginning in the third quarter of 1999. Telstra, which is two-thirds owned by the Australian government, said in a separate statement that the Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) project would replace the old analogue network. It said the deal would particularly benefit rural mobile phone users. "For more than 1.5 million users currently connected to the analogue network, the CDMA network will combine the benefits of digital operation with coverage similar to analogue for handheld customers," Telstra group managing director products and marketing, Lindsay Yelland said. "Telstra plans to commercially launch CDMA in mid-1999 in Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Adelaide and Brisbane. This will be followed by a rapid introduction commencing the second half of 1999 into regional locations covered by the current analogue network," Yelland said. sydney.newsroom@reuters.com))
