This innovation in long-distance telecom transmissions is expected to significantly improve the quality of Internet service in the country. Vodafone Egypt’s successful qualitative leap was achieved with Huawei’s technological expertise.
“The 25Gbps microwave link will enable high-demand applications such as 5G, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT),” said Jim Liu, Chairman and CEO of Huawei Egypt. He added that through the collaboration with Vodafone Egypt, Huawei’s goal is to advance network solutions and contribute to telecommunications innovation across the Middle East and Africa.
The launch of this advanced microwave link, using the 80GHz frequency band, comes almost a week after Vodafone Egypt obtained a license to use 5G services following an agreement with the National Telecommunications Regulatory Authority. Taken together, the two facts will help position the telecom company as a provider of very high-quality services in a telecom market contested with Telecom Egypt, Orange and e&.
