The collaboration is also aimed at preparing Vodafone\u2019s infrastructure for the next wave of digital innovation, the telco said.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the initiative, Vodafone Qatar will adopt Nokia\u2019s comprehensive technology solutions to significantly increase network capacity, lower latency and reduce time-to-market for new offerings. The modernization project will incorporate automation and heightened security protocols to improve operational responsiveness and support rapid service evolution, the telco added.<\/p>\n<p>With the country\u2019s ICT sector expected to grow by 8.5% annually through 2030, this initiative will also help Vodafone Qatar to position itself to meet the growing demand for high-performance connectivity within Qatar\u2019s expanding digital economy.<\/p>\n<p>The partnership between Vodafone Qatar and Nokia will support a broad transformation of the operator\u2019s infrastructure \u2014 from smarter broadband access to new enterprise services enabled by 5G slicing \u2014 while maintaining the flexibility to adapt to fast-changing application requirements, it added.<\/p>\n<p>Hamad Abdulla Jassim Al-Thani, chief executive officer at Vodafone Qatar, said: \u2018Vodafone Qatar continuously embraces new opportunities to deploy emerging technologies as part of its commitment to driving digital transformation in Qatar, in line with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gco.gov.qa\/en\/state-of-qatar\/qatar-national-vision-2030\/our-story\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Qatar National Vision 2030<\/a>. Our work with Nokia will enable us to become more agile and responsive to the evolving needs of customers and businesses. By integrating advanced fiber, mobile and cloud capabilities, we are shaping a smarter, more secure network that can support everything from customi[z]ed home Wi-Fi to the latest enterprise technologies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Qatar National Vision 2030 is a strategic framework launched by the State of Qatar in 2008 to transform the country into an advanced, sustainable society capable of achieving development and ensuring a high standard of living for future generations.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis collaboration reflects the depth of our portfolio and the strength of our partnership with Vodafone Qatar,\u201d commented Raghav Sahgal, Nokia\u2019s president of cloud and network services. \u201cThrough more flexible scaling, reliability and near zero-touch automation that our advanced core and broadband solutions deliver, Nokia will provide greater network agility and service offerings, and provide our partner with all the tools it needs to efficiently manage its network assets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The deployment will feature Nokia\u2019s multi-cloud core software, enabling enhanced service agility and network optimization. These capabilities are expected to provide Vodafone Qatar with the tools necessary to support everything from personalized consumer services to sophisticated enterprise applications.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, Vodafone Qatar <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rcrwireless.com\/20240603\/featured\/vodafone-qatar-achieves-over-10-gbps-speed-during-5g-a-trial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">said<\/a> it had successfully verified 6 GHz spectrum using 128 T\/R massive MIMO, , achieving user speeds exceeding 10 Gbps by aggregating four 100 MHz carriers.<\/p>\n<p>The telco noted that this trial, which was part of Vodafone Qatar\u2019s phase-two trial on 5G-Advanced (5G-A) technologies, showcased the 5G-A capabilities on the 6 GHz upper mid-band spectrum.<\/p>\n<p>Through these trials, Vodafone Qatar\u2019s sites can potentially have a system capacity of up to 30 Gbps, the telco said. The telco also achieved over 1 Gbps uplink user speeds during the trial which is essential in supporting use cases of live 8k streaming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The partnership between Vodafone Qatar and Nokia will support a broad transformation of the operator\u2019s infrastructure In sum \u2013 what you need to know: Nationwide 5G modernization \u2013 Vodafone Qatar will upgrade its entire network with Nokia\u2019s technology to deliver faster, more agile and secure 5G services.
