CAIRO, April 19 (Reuters) - Telecom Egypt will on Wednesday sign an agreement with Orange Egypt to offer 2G and 3G mobile services through Orange Egypt OREG.CA , one Telecom Egypt source and one source from the telecommunication ministry told Reuters.

Telecom Egypt ETEL.CA , the state's fixed-line monopoly, was the first company to take up the state's offer to buy a 4G licence in August for 7.08 billion Egyptian pounds ($392 million) to enter the mobile market directly for the first time.

($1 = 18.0700 Egyptian pounds)
