Türk Telekom has shared its vision for 5G, set to be launched on April 1, at a 5G gala held at the Atatürk Cultural Center (AKM) in Istanbul.
Guided by its “5G for Everyone” vision, Türk Telekom aims to build an inclusive digital future for its customers, the telecom giant said in a statement.
“Our fiber infrastructure, exceeding half a million kilometers, serves as the strongest guarantee of 5G’s high data transmission capacity, while our rate of fiber-connected base stations, critical to 5G, has already surpassed global 2030 targets,” said Ebubekir Şahin, Türk Telekom CEO, speaking at the event.
“With our fiber network extending to all 81 provinces, our extensive 5G infrastructure, our expertise in 5G applications, LTE base stations of which 61 percent are fiber-connected, and the highest 5G capacity per subscriber, we are ready to deliver the most inclusive 5G experience for everyone, everywhere across Türkiye,” said Şahin.
With the digital backbone we have meticulously built, reaching every corner of Türkiye, Türk Telekom is not only transitioning to a new technology today but also opening the door to a new era in our country’s journey toward the future, he added.
Enabled by the ultra-low latency, high speed and simultaneous connectivity enabled by 5G, Türk Telekom also marked a first with hologram technology, bringing the late artist Müslüm Gürses back to the stage.
Powered by artificial intelligence, a 5G-based hologram of Gürses performed alongside prominent artists, featuring new songs he had never sung before.
