TIM Brasil says will not bid for 2.3 GHz and 700 MHz frequencies

Tuesday 2 March 2021 | 12:55 CET | News
TIM Brasil is not interested in acquiring frequencies in the 2.3 GHz and 700 MHz frequency bands in the upcoming auction, said CEO Pietro Labriola during a meeting with journalists and analysts, reports Telesintese. According to him, TIM Brasil sees complementary value for 5G in the 3.5 GHz and 26 GHz spectrum bands, adding that the first will be used for implementing full 5G, and the second is intended for backhaul purposes. TIM Brasil also plans to share 5G infrastructure "whenever possible" in order to reduce costs, the CEO said.
