Orange Egypt, in partnership with Chinese tech giant Huawei, is intensifying efforts to expand 5G connectivity across Egypt—aiming to boost both consumer and enterprise access to next-generation digital services.
The collaboration is set to catalyse the adoption of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR). The companies describe the 5G push as foundational to developing smart ecosystems across sectors, from smart cities to the Internet of Things (IoT).
Central to this initiative is the deployment of Huawei’s E-band microwave technology, operating within the 71–76 GHz and 81–86 GHz frequency ranges. This solution offers ultra-high throughput and low-latency backhaul capabilities, particularly vital for urban zones with dense traffic and rural areas lacking fibre infrastructure.
Huawei’s Massive MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) solutions for Radio Access Networks are also being leveraged to enhance Orange Egypt’s 5G performance. These technologies are engineered to deliver higher spectral efficiency, improved network capacity, and robust service quality—even in bandwidth-intensive environments. Use cases span ultra-HD video streaming to immersive AR/VR experiences.
“With our advanced 5G solutions, we are enabling the next generation of mobile networks to deliver faster, more reliable and energy-efficient services,” said Mohamed Youssef, Key Account Executive at Huawei Egypt. “This partnership underscores Huawei’s dedication to helping operators meet the growing demand for high-speed, sustainable connectivity.”
The partnership signals a significant step toward strengthening Egypt’s digital infrastructure, broadening access to the digital economy, and future-proofing telecommunications services.
