Türk Telekom, one of Turkey’s leading technology companies, announced the completion of all infrastructure work for the 5G transition. The company has increased its fiber infrastructure to a record level in preparation for 5G.

Türk Telekom 5G Preparation and Fiber Power

5G technology requires a robust fiber infrastructure to deliver high speeds. Türk Telekom is notable for its extensive investments in this area. The company has expanded Turkey’s fiber network to over 400,000 kilometers. Most importantly, this robust infrastructure will seamlessly meet the bandwidth requirements of 5G. Additionally, Türk Telekom has made a slight change to its network name. Subscribers now see the words “We are READY for 5G” as the network name.

In addition to infrastructure investments, the company also focuses on domestic technology. They are collaborating with the domestic ecosystem on base stations and software, which are critical for 5G. This approach is also crucial for Turkey’s technological independence. Türk Telekom will continue to support domestic 5G technologies.

Next-generation technologies being tested
The company has begun testing the technology in real-world scenarios. The first 5G trials were successfully conducted in designated pilot regions and stadiums. They are also developing innovative projects in areas such as smart cities, robotics, and virtual reality.
