5G of the Month:
5G services roaming subscribers to reach 210 million in 2026
The number of global roaming subscribers using 5G services will increase from 4.5 million in 2021 to 210 million in 2026 boosted by the return of international travel and demand for a consistent data experience at home and abroad.
Mauritius Telecom (MT)'s mobile network, has launched the 5G services
With the launch of the four MyT 5G Experience Zones, Mauritius Telecom is the first operator to deploy the 5th generation of mobile network in Mauritius- said The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Mauritius Telecom, Sherry Singh.
Three calls for wider 5G FWA deployment in rural UK
Operators around the UK are rolling broadband infrastructure at an impressive pace, battling to meet the government target of reaching 85% of UK premises by 2025.
Fixed line, or fibre, is significantly more difficult to roll out than FWA, which only needs a mobile signal to operate. It's time for a greater consideration of a wider pool of technology, particularly FWA, to help those in rural areas have access to faster internet and ultimately help reduce the digital divide- said David Hennessy, CTO of Three UK and Ireland.
Estonian operator Telia expands its 5G network in 77 locations
Telian 5G network is now available in 77 locations in 14 main cities and by the end of the year, the company is planning to reach more than 100 locations.
We also hope that the country will move forward with the auction of the 3.6 GHz frequency band as soon as possible, which would enable even better use of the potential offered by 5G technology and bring new services to the market, such as the long-awaited 5G home Internet - said Pajos.
IPv4/IPv6 of the Month:
China is planning massive adoption of IPv6 by 2030
China's Central Cyberspace Affairs Commission and Cyberspace Administration have set a goal of having 700 million active IPv6 users and 200 million Internet of Things by 2023. Also, by the end of 2023, new networks won't be allowed to use IPv4 and home wireless routers will need to enable and fully support IPv6 by default.
