New 5G-advanced upgrade boosts UAE connectivity

Sustainable design and advanced spectrum use are shaping the next phase of 5G-advanced rollout across the UAE’s telecom infrastructure.
A new 5G-Advanced deployment by UAE telecom operator du combines stronger indoor coverage with reduced energy use, reflecting a broader push towards sustainable network infrastructure.

UAE telecom operator ‘du’ has deployed the country’s first tri-band Radio Remote Unit on the 600MHz spectrum in partnership with Huawei. The rollout marks progress in the UAE’s 5G-Advanced network development.

Improved indoor coverage and faster speeds are delivered through dynamic power sharing and multi-band functionality. The upgrade supports services such as 5G Fixed Wireless Access and Voice over New Radio.

Lower energy consumption and a compact design reduce the environmental footprint of network infrastructure. The deployment aligns with national sustainability goals while improving long-term network efficiency.
