TIM Brasil launches solar power project for 4G coverage

Thursday 20 May 2021 | 14:56 CET | News
TIM Brasil has launched the SkyCoverage project to bring 4G reception to every municipality in Brazil by 2023, including highways and districts. The first antennas were installed earlier this year and the idea is to offer 4G connectivity in the 700 MHz band at locations that currently have no internet or telephone signal, especially in remote areas of the country. Using antennas with simplified infrastructure, it will be possible to transmit LTE signals even where there is no power grid, since they can be powered by solar energy.
