Integratel Perú secures spectrum to boost 5G rollout

The 5G spectrum award commits Integratel Perú to expand 4G in rural areas, connect key roads, and deliver next-generation services to schools and hospitals.

Integratel Perú secures 100 MHz spectrum to deploy 5G, promising faster connections, broader coverage, and enhanced digital tools for industries, public services, and rural communities.

Integratel Perú has secured a 100 MHz spectrum block to accelerate the deployment of 5G, laying the foundation for faster connections, lower latency, and greater device capacity.

A move that is expected to boost Peru’s digital transformation and strengthen local industries’ competitiveness.

The company has already modernised 1,400 antennas as part of a wider network upgrade that will continue into 2027, preparing the ground for nationwide 5G rollout once fully authorised.

Under its Movistar Empresas brand, Integratel plans to enhance digital services, including personnel identification systems that use cameras to verify protective equipment in restricted areas. With 5G, such tools will deliver more explicit images and real-time alerts, reducing human oversight.

As part of its spectrum award commitments, Integratel will expand 4G coverage to 437 rural locations and extend connectivity along 545 kilometres of roads.

It will also deliver 5G to 92 public institutions, including schools, hospitals, and Pan American Games venues, ensuring wider access to advanced connectivity nationwide.
