Telecom Egypt has entered into a new partnership with Nokia to provide data services using 5G technology in Egypt.
The company’s statement said that the agreement aims to “revolutionize the communications sector in the country by introducing fifth-generation mobile technology in a number of major cities, namely Giza, Luxor, Aswan and Alexandria.”
The statement added: “Nokia will provide the integrated devices needed to provide these services, which will include an exceptional experience for Telecom Egypt customers, including obtaining higher speeds, larger capacities and better quality of data services.”
The company said the service will be launched later this year.
Earlier this year, Telecom Egypt obtained a license to provide fifth-generation mobile phone services in Egypt for 15 years.
According to the statement, under the agreement, Nokia will “deploy its most advanced 5G network equipment in the industry,” and will provide a range of technical support services including installation, integration and network upgrading services. (Reuters)
