Increased Network Speeds of 5G Network Will Aid Users: Marc Allera

Marc Allera, who is the CEO of BT’s consumer division, stated that the company has fulfilled its commitment from last year and deployed 5G services in 35 new towns and cities across the U.K. With gradual ease of restrictions, the fast network speeds and increased capacity of the 5G network will ensure the retention of customers and increase the footfall in occupied and busy places. Recently, EE has also acquired 2x10 megahertz of the paired frequency spectrum in the 700 MHz for nearly $385 million. Not only this, but the telecom giant acquired 20 MHz of supplementary downlink spectrum in the 700 Mhz band for nearly 4 million pounds.
