Alcatel-Lucent has announced that it is one of the companies selected by Neo-Sky, a company of Iberdrola Group, to deploy a turnkey WiMAX 802.16e-2005 network in Madrid, enabling the Spanish broadband operator to test and accelerate the deployment of WiMAX services in Spain.

According to Alcatel-Lucent, the network will enable services such as VoIP, high speed internet access and advanced multimedia broadband services for nomadic users, supported by computer-embedded end user devices.

Alcatel-Lucent also will provide design and planning for integration of Neo-Sky's network along with maintenance and provisioning services.

Cesar Arranz, executive president of Neo-Sky, said: "With this WiMAX field trial we are laying the foundations to know the performances that the future commercial networks will be able to support to meet our corporate customer's requirements for easy-to-use wireless broadband services offering nomadic capabilities, including voice, data, and multimedia, and best-in-class quality of service."
