Telia is launching 5G network in Lithuania
“In 2018, we were one of the first ones in Europe to test 5G technology in live network in Vilnius.
2021-2023 During the period, Telia Lietuva successfully completed the modernization of its network using the most advanced Ericsson Radio Access Network (RAN) equipment. This gave Telia the opportunity to create an advanced 5G network at 3,5 GHz and 700 MHz frequencies, ensuring high-speed data availability throughout Lithuania.
After the negotiations on 5G frequencies, Lithuania was the last European country to join the 5G wave, and the country's authorities gave the green light for the official start only in the fall of last year. Despite all the challenges, Telia together with Ericsson completed the project ahead of schedule and without any service interruptions.
The development of 5G in Lithuania can be called a success story. After the negotiations on 5G frequencies, Lithuania was the last European country to join the 5G wave, and the country's authorities gave the green light for the official start only in the fall of last year.
Ericsson's 5G Massive MIMO radio technology contributed to this achievement. The Antenna Integrated Radio (AIR) solution, specifically the AIR 3268, features a smaller and lighter design with higher bandwidth and capacity, enabling Telia to deliver lightning-fast and reliable 5G connectivity across the country.
