Ericsson, NCA explore future of tech in Ghana

Ericsson says the 5G rollout was based on Time Division Duplexing sites using the 3.5 GHz frequency band and FDD following a repurposing of the existing 4G spectrum.

The conference presented an opportunity for discussions about Ericsson Private 5G solution to enhance connectivity and operations in the African mining.

According to e& Egypt, the agreement reflects a shared vision of leveraging AI-driven network technology for next-generation advances in telecoms.

The two are set to establish a framework of cooperation on 5G technology development, deployment, and innovation.

20-port antennas from Ericsson Antenna System will be integrated into e& Egypt’s network supporting high-order site sharing for all operators in the country.

The alliance's goal is to enhance financial inclusion from first-time consumers to high-end enterprise applications by leveraging MTN's Mobile Money service on the Ericsson Wallet Platform.

The initiative will reduce the need for underserved individuals of the community to travel long distances to urban areas for services.

All 29 sites will operate sustainably on 100 percent solar and battery power, running on clean and reliable energy sources and reducing the carbon footprint.

Ericsson will upgrade the telco’s existing Evolved Packet Core network to cloud-native dual-mode 5G Core, as well as upgrade the Unified Data Management solution.

The partners will also introduce Artificial Intelligence (AI)-enabled Cognitive Software for network optimisation.
