All of UAE's inhabited areas to be covered with 5G by end 2025

UAE - Mubasher: All inhabited areas in the UAE will be covered with the 5G network by the end of 2025, Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) told the Emirates News Agency (WAM).

To achieve this objective, the TRA will benefit from the recent allocation of the new frequency, the Executive Director Spectrum Affairs and the Head of the Arab Spectrum Management Group (ASMG), Tariq Al Awadhi, announced.

Al Awadhi noted that adding this category of frequencies will promote the UAE's position among the indicators related to the readiness of the telecommunications sector and provide necessary resources for international mobile communications applications.

Meanwhile, the new frequencies will enable operators and device manufacturers to experience other features provided by 5G technology, compared to the previously assigned bands.

Al Awadhi further remarked that the reaction time among devices using the 5G network will be 10 times less than the time spent in the fourth generation.
