Tele2 and Telenor Now Cover Over 90% of Sweden's Population with 5G and 70% with High-Performance 5G+

In 2020, Tele2 became the first operator in Sweden to launch 5G. Since then, Tele2 and Telenor, through Net4Mobility, have replaced all network equipment with the latest technology from Ericsson and Nokia. This upgrade has resulted in an energy-efficient network, enabling faster and more stable connections. At the same time, the 4G network has been enhanced, increasing capacity by up to 200–300% within the existing infrastructure.

-After three years of intense work, we are now nearing the completion of our largest network expansion ever. With 5G+, the latest technology, and entirely new equipment, we can offer our customers a fast, stable, and energy-efficient network. This is world-class connectivity for the future, and we are proud to deliver it today, says Björn Lindberg, Network Expert at Tele2.

The 5G+ rollout is being conducted by Net4Mobility, the joint venture between Tele2 and Telenor. This collaboration enables an efficient and rapid network expansion across the country.

-With the modernisation of the existing network complete, we look forward to an expansive rollout that densifies and improves capacity nationwide. Starting in January, we will accelerate this new expansion, says Sara Kebert, Network Expert at Telenor.
