Rwanda : OLLEH RWANDA NETWORKS plans to introduce open-access LTE network [TendersInfo (India)]


(TendersInfo (India) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) An open-access LTE network has been planned to be deployed by Olleh Rwanda Networks (ORN) on 1 September in the country.

The project grows out of a combination of KT's expertise and approximately USD 140 million cash injection with the government's assignment of its over 3,000-km fibre network, spectrum and a wholesale operator licence.

The platform has successfully gone via a series of tests and would provide 4G connectivity to local MNOs and ISPs on a wholesale basis.



Rwanda seeks to have 95 percent of citizens connected to the internet by 2017, up from 20 percent this year, even though many parts of Kigali are already covered with free wireless internet.
