Unstrung reports that Alcatel-Lucent is the infrastructure provider deploying Verizon Wireless’ LTE network in Las Vegas. Both Alcatel-Lucent and Ericsson are the two main infrastructure providers for the operator’s planned US LTE network, but Verizon so far hasn’t revealed which vendor it will use in each of the 25 to 30 LTE markets it hopes to launch this year. Keith Shank, Ericsson’s director of the advanced technology labs at its “Experience Center” in Plano, Texas, told Unstrung that planned deployments are “about evenly split.”
