en.Wedoany.com Reported - Tanzanian telecom operator Yas Tanzania has partnered with Ericsson to commercially deploy the Ericsson AIR 3285 radio unit for the first time in Africa, aiming to improve network performance and user experience. Built on a successful pilot, this deployment is part of Yas Tanzania's network modernization and expansion plan to strengthen digital infrastructure and expand coverage of premium connectivity services.

Ericsson provides the AIR 3285 radio unit for the project and supports deployment and integration, helping to boost network capacity and performance. This will deliver more reliable and higher-quality connectivity for everyday applications such as online education, remote work, and live streaming, improve user experience in traffic-intensive areas like large events, and lay the foundation for new digital services to drive inclusive growth. Enhanced 4G capabilities will increase high-speed connectivity access for individuals and businesses, promote digital inclusion, and support the introduction of advanced digital services such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and smart cities.

The Ericsson AIR 3285 is a dual-band frequency division duplex (FDD) massive MIMO radio unit weighing only 31 kg, making it the lightest model in its class. Its optimized weight and size simplify deployment in high-capacity sites, helping operators address growing uplink capacity demands. Compared to traditional 4T/4R solutions, this unit delivers up to 4 times higher uplink capacity and up to 2 times higher downlink capacity, improving network performance and efficiency.

Ericsson and Yas Tanzania noted their long-standing partnership, including the launch of 5G services in 2022 and the modernization and expansion of the operator's 4G network.
