Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Econet Wireless Zimbabwe deputy CEO Roy Chimanikire is confident the company\u2019s partnership with Ericsson for 5G expansion across Harare will deliver high connectivity for Zimbabweans.<\/p>\n

Ericsson will help Econet upgrade its Radio Access Network (RAN) and mobile Core network. Said Chimanikire:<\/p>\n

Econet Wireless Zimbabwe is on a mission to realize an advanced 5G ecosystem in the country.<\/p>\n

Our latest partnership with Ericsson brings us closer to realizing this ambition with 5G expansions in more locations.<\/p>\n

Powering several digital technologies, 5G will play a pivotal role in realizing many of the goals outlined in the Smart Zimbabwe 2030 agenda, notably in smart industrialization.<\/p>\n

Working alongside Ericsson, we aspire to build a high-performing 5G network that will not only deliver high connectivity but also support industrial and societal advancements in Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n

Todd Ashton, Vice President and Head of Ericsson South and East Africa at Ericsson Middle East and Africa, said:<\/p>\n

We have enjoyed a close and productive partnership with Econet for more than two decades, and we remain committed to supporting them in strengthening their network infrastructure as Zimbabwe lays out ambitious digital plans.<\/p>\n

Our solutions will provide Econet with incredible speeds and mobility and introduce next-generation connectivity services seamlessly.<\/p>\n

It will also accelerate the introduction of new 5G use cases that will support the nation\u2019s digitalization momentum and assert its position in the growing digital economy.<\/p>\n

The upgrades that Ericsson and Econet will be working on will improve everything \u2013 2G, 3G, and 4G.<\/p>\n
