MTN to modernise core networks

Published: 2024-03-01 12:53 +02:00 by Staff Reporter tag: Telecoms

MTN’s two most important operating units have embarked on a programme to modernise their core networks.

MTN South Africa and MTN Nigeria plan to modernise their core networks over the next five years after signing a deal with Ericsson for the project. The modernisation will ensure the readiness of the two operating units’ network infrastructure for “5G standalone” , or 5G SA, where the network is layered end to end with 5G technologies. The modernised core networks will be powered by Ericsson’s “cloud-native, dual-mode” 5G core. The ultimate aim of the projects is to build a modern, agile and cloud-native core network

Mazen Mroué, MTN Group chief technology officer, said in a statement that the project will enhance network performance and efficiency once completed. MTN Nigeria chief technical officer Mohammed Rufai said: “When completed, it will accelerate broadband penetration in alignment with the federal government’s broadband plan.” MTN South Africa chief technology officer Rami Farah said: “This will allow our network infrastructure to support strong data growth and enable 5G standalone in the future.” The ultimate aim of the projects, MTN said, is to build a “modern, agile and cloud-native core network” aimed at delivering new products and an improved customer experience. – © 2024 NewsCentral Media Get breaking news alerts from TechCentral on WhatsApp
