Telstra makes bits of its Gold Coast network 5G-ready
- Thursday | 16th August, 2018
Telstra CEO Andrew Penn claimed that the switch-on makes those bits of Telstra’s network the first in Australia to be “5G-ready”. Telstra says its three-year network investment plan to get its LTE network 5G-ready – which runs up to June 30, 2019 – amounts to A$5 billion ($3.6 billion) in investment. Telstra said it is using the 3.4-GHz band for the live 5G-ready sites. Telstra has escalated the Australia 5G War by announcing that it has switched on 5G technology across selected areas of the Gold Coast. Penn added that the operator plans to make over 200 sites around the country live and 5G-ready by the end of 2018.
