Polish operator Polkomtel – branded as Plus - has chosen Ericsson to supply equipment for its 5G Radio Access Network.
The first wave of deployment will cover a minimum of 85 sites across five Polish cities: Gdansk, Lodz, Poznan, Szczecin and Wroclaw.
The network will be delivered via the 2.6GHz TDD band and will use equipment from Ericsson’s Radio System and 5G Core portfolios, such as the vendor’s 5G Evolved Packet Core.
Plus expects to begin offering commercial services within the next few weeks, and will begin further rollouts following Poland’s 5G spectrum auctions.
