Telecom revolution: More capacity for smartphones in Fürth!

Exciting news for mobile phone users in Fürth! Deutsche Telekom has significantly expanded its mobile network in the city to meet the increasing demand for mobile data transmission. In the last few weeks, not only was a new mobile phone location opened on Mainstrasse, but two existing locations were also brought up to date with 4G and 5G. The aim is to significantly improve network coverage and reception in buildings. A more stable supply should be guaranteed in the future, especially along the important Frankfurt-Nuremberg railway line. Telekom reports that bandwidth demand in Germany is increasing by around 30 percent annually, underscoring the need for such an expansion. Telekom currently operates 41 mobile phone locations in Fürth and achieves a household coverage of almost 100 percent

.

This measure is part of a comprehensive long-term expansion plan that Telekom would like to pursue until 2027. In the next three years, the construction of seven new locations and the technical upgrade of 21 existing systems are planned. The new technology mentioned above not only includes improved 4G and 5G functions, but also modern security features such as the Advanced Mobile Location emergency call technology, which transmits the location when an emergency call is made to 112, and the Cell Broadcast warning system, which sends warning messages directly to mobile phones in affected radio cells. In this way, Telekom shows how serious it is about the security of its users.

Overview of the new cell phone locations

The expansion is not just limited to Fürth. In the last four weeks, Telekom worked at 863 locations throughout Germany. New 4G and 5G antennas were installed there and existing locations were upgraded. A total of 99 new locations were created, most of them in Hesse. 13 new locations were added in Bavaria, further improving the mobile supply landscape. In addition, supply along railway lines and motorways is a particular concern: investments are being made in 429 locations in order to optimize the network quality for travelers.

Telekom is not only pursuing the goal of nationwide 5G expansion, but is also working on an ultra-capacity network in which the capacity is to be doubled by 2027. A key part of this effort is connecting most locations to fiber optic lines exceeding 10 gigabits per second and leveraging low-band and mid-band frequencies for longer range and better transmission rates. This ensures that fast and stable internet access is available even in rural areas.

The future of mobile communications in Germany

The network expansion is not only a measure by Telekom, but is also supported by the federal government. As part of the gigabit strategy, which was adopted in the summer of 2022, the aim is for the most modern mobile communications standard to be available across the board by 2030 and for the last dead spots to be closed by 2026. The goal is for 99.90% of households and 97.4% of the country to be covered with 4G/LTE. In addition, the network operators are continually working to improve mobile phone coverage, which is of enormous importance for users in Fürth and beyond.

In summary, it can be said that with its expansion in Fürth and other cities, Telekom is not only responding to growing requirements, but is also actively shaping the digital future in Germany. Users can look forward to better network coverage and faster connections, whether surfing, streaming or in an emergency.
