Telecom equipment vendor Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN) has signed a framework agreement with Qtel International, under which NSN will provide its mobile infrastructure technology across the operations of Qtel. Included in the infrastructure is the deployment of its Flexi base stations and other network systems and services.
