Ericsson to support Telefónica Spain 5G launch
Ericsson | September 11, 2020
Telefónica is to launch 5G services in Spain in partnership with Ericsson using mid Band 5G TDD (3.5GHz) and Ericsson Spectrum Sharing on 4G/5G FDD (1800-2100MHz) frequencies. Ericsson field professionals, along with Telefónica, have been working to ensure that 5G base station sites across the network will be fully operational when Telefónica Spain makes the service available for its subscribers. Thousands of Ericsson sites are expected to be activated before the end of 2020. Telefonica Spain is targeting 5G coverage for 75 percent of the population by the end of the year.
