For e&amp;\u00a0UAE, the milestone further solidifies its position as the world\u2019s fastest mobile network while future-proofing radio access network investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trial utilized e&amp; UAE\u2019s commercial spectrum across 3.5 GHz, 2.6 GHz, 2.1 GHz and 1.8 GHz bands and delivered a throughput of 5.8 Gbps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nokia supplied its latest high-capacity equipment from the AirScale portfolio, including Habrok\u00a064 Massive MIMO radios, dual-band radios, baseband solutions and carrier aggregation software. MediaTek provided a prototype smartphone powered by its flagship 5G chipset, which supports 6CC carrier aggregation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mark Atkinson, Senior Vice President and Head of Radio Access Networks at Nokia, said: \u201cTogether with our long-standing partners, e&amp; and MediaTek, Nokia is once again pushing the limits of technology by aggregating six mid-band component carriers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our industry-leading carrier aggregation solutions help maximize 5G performance with existing spectrum assets, paving the path to Advanced 5G. Multi-gigabit speeds are a true game-changer for end-user experience in the UAE\u2019s competitive market for both consumers and enterprises.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0Abdulrahman Al Humaidan &#8211; Vice President Access Network at e&amp; UAE, said:<br>\u201cAggregating six mid-band carriers lets us squeeze every bit of performance out of the spectrum that we have available for 5G. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This breakthrough shows that 5G Advanced isn\u2019t a distant vision, but a concrete enabler for multi-gigabit speeds across the UAE without waiting for new frequencies. Working with Nokia and MediaTek, we now have a clear blueprint for scaling this capability nationwide.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added: \u201c5G is redefining what\u2019s possible \u2014 from ultra-fast downloads to real-time connectivity that powers everything from mobile streaming to smart cities. At e&amp;, we\u2019re pushing the boundaries of 5G performance to ensure people across the country experience the full potential of next-generation speed and reliability. This isn\u2019t just about faster connections \u2014 it\u2019s about enabling the UAE\u2019s digital future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nokia and e&amp; UAE are paving the way for future enhancements to 5G networks by providing the critical technology foundation that supports the growing demand for data and digital services in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>HC Hwang, General Manager of Wireless Communication System and Partnership at MediaTek said: \u201cSuccessfully completing the 6CC carrier aggregation trial in partnership with e&amp; and Nokia marks a significant leap forward in 5G technology advancement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This achievement, conducted on our new M90 modem platform, underscores MediaTek&#8217;s commitment to pushing download speeds, enhancing network performance, and delivering unparalleled connectivity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 First use of 400 MHz mid-band spectrum in the region on e&amp;\u2019s commercial network \u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Enables e&amp;
