Etisalat Misr, Ericsson prepare for 5G with two partnership agreements
Published in Daily News Egypt on 25 - 02 - 2019

Ericsson announced the signing of two new contracts with Etisalat Misr to expand the latter's 4G network capabilities and extend the Managed Services deal. These contracts are part of Etisalat and Ericsson's strategic partnership to ensure the best network availability in Egypt.
The first agreement entails expansion of current 4G capabilities, advanced features deployment all over Cairo as well as deploying 5G ready Ericsson radio systems, which will boost Etisalat's network capacity in Greater Cairo. This will lead to an enhanced end-user experience and delivering best in class services, which will serve the growing demand and expectations of Etisalat's valuable customers.
The Chief Technology Officer at Etisalat Misr, Khalid Murshed, said: "We continue our commitment to bringing the best network to Etisalat Misr customers. At Etisalat Misr, we managed to maintain technology leadership that serve millions of customers across Egypt with the latest and best quality of products and services. Working with Ericsson allows us to deploy the latest technologies on our 4G network, which will be an important component of our rapid transition to 5G."
Moreover, the second contract is an extension of the current Managed Services contract for a further five years. Ericsson helps to create sustainable differentiation for its managed services customers by evolving from network-centric operations to user experience-centric operations, using automation and artificial intelligence.
Rafiah Ibrahim, the head of Ericsson Middle East and Africa, said: "The recent partnerships with Etisalat Misr highlight our joint commitment to continue providing measurable improvements to secure network quality and performance. Going forward, Ericsson will continue to invest in automation to further increase network quality and shorten lead times while also implementing analytics to measure and enhance the subscribers' experience."
To assist operators in the preparation of 5G, Ericsson will continue in 2019 to roll out its 5G RAN software, giving front-runner operators the ability to turn on 5G in their existing LTE commercial networks. Further enhancements are expected as the 5G ecosystem evolves. For customers, the result will be higher data speeds and more capacity for a growing device ecosystem.
