Vietnam to commercialize 5G in October

According to the Ministry of Information and Communications (MIC), Vietnam has made official plans to commercialize 5G Network in October using only domestically produced components.

On January 17, the first video call using a 5G connection on a gNobeB transceiver was successfully implemented, this means that Viet Nam has officially mastered 5G network technology.

Vietnam is among the few countries that have the capability to produce 5G equipment. The MIC is making arrangements to direct investment in research and production of 5G equipment this year. Together with that, Vietnam is also building a roadmap to remove 2G technology from 2022 to aid the establishment of 5G technology.

The ministry said telecom infrastructure has seen an important change in frequency infrastructure. Implementing 5G in Viet Nam has advantages as Vietnamese electronics and telecommunications businesses have produced lots of equipment and infrastructure, whereas before foreign manufacturers were relied upon.

This would be an important step for socio-economic development and ensuring national defense, he added.
