Provides Voice and Data Service Infrastructure to Give
CommutersConvenience and Protection
HONG KONG, CHINA - - 20 November 2017 ("Comba Telecom" or "the Group", HKSE: 2342),
a global leading wireless solutions provider, will deploy a turnkey wireless
solution for the longest and busiest highway tunnel system in Brazil, the main
highway that connects the metropolitan area of São Paulo and the Port of Santos
and other coastal regions. With ComFlex DAS as the core component, the solution
will support seamless mobile voice and high-speed data services along the
highway and tunnels.
The 60km highway has two of Brazil's longest
tunnels running through mountains and rain forests to seaside low ranges.
Carrying over a million vehicles on weekends and more than 123 million tons of
goods a year, the highway is an important transportation link in the
region. Comba Telecom is now equipping
it with an efficient full-span wireless voice and high-speed data network
together with the five major local telecom operators to provide 2G, 3G and
4G/LTE coverage. High performance infrastructure provides commuters with
quality cellular voice and data communication, as well as essential data
services for tracking and monitoring cargo trucks, and even communications
support for highway control personnel. This cellular coverage project can also
contribute to highway safety, promising security not only to tourists in the
millions, but also to those in the transportation service business crucial to
the Brazilian economy.
Mr. Johnny Brito, CEO
of Comba Telecom Brazil, said, "Since entering the Brazilian market in 2006, Comba has been a
pioneer in providing intelligent and customized solutions to major engineering
projects. We were selected to provide solutions to the National 2014 Soccer
Tournament , the Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo´s metro stations, and other
important projects, among the more than 1,000 projects we undertook in the past
decade. Comba Telecom is aware of and ready for the challenges considering the
specific conditions in this particular case. We will provide this important
highway with the latest telecommunications technologies to ensure commuters
have access to stable mobile voice and high-speed data services. We are very
proud to have been chosen for this project."

extremely challenging project is proof of Comba Telecom´s leadership in
providing DAS and high-speed data solutions in Latin America and the choice
partner to most of the operators and
neutral hosts in the region. Looking together at the project we undertook for
the biggest copper mines in Chile, it is clear that our equipment not only works
well indoors, but also in very harsh environments such as on this highway and
tunnel system in Brazil."
Mr. Simon Yeung,
Executive Director and Senior Vice President of Comba Telecom and President of
