22 March 2022

Espoo, Finland – Nokia today announced that it has extended its partnership with T-Mobile Polska to include the modernization of the operator’s existing radio network infrastructure and rollout of 5G services. The move will support T-Mobile Poland’s strategy of maintaining technology leadership in the country and delivering best-in-class services to their customers. Under the ten-year agreement, Nokia will increase its share in T-Mobile’s network to 50 percent with deployment already underway.

Nokia will supply T-Mobile Polska with its latest AirScale equipment portfolio including Single RAN, AirScale base stations, and 5G Massive MIMO antennas for indoor and outdoor coverage. T-Mobile Polska plans to utilize 4G and 5G Dynamic Spectrum Sharing on lower bands and later the 3.5 GHz spectrum band for 5G dense urban coverage. This will provide 5G coverage and capacity while simultaneously operating 4G LTE to meet user capacity requirements. These solutions will enable the operator to build on its existing network leadership and deliver 5G-related connectivity and capacity benefits to consumers while reducing complexity and increasing cost efficiency.
