Uztelecom modernized 1566 mobile base stations and commissioned another 380 as part of its network development program for 2025–2026. As of October 18, the modernization plan is 104% complete, the company reported. Work was carried out across the country, including the Republic of Karakalpakstan, 12 regions, and Tashkent.
The equipment upgrade is expected to increase network capacity and enhance its readiness to serve a growing number of subscribers. The launch of additional base stations, in turn, aims to expand coverage and improve access to mobile communications in areas where existing infrastructure is insufficient.
According to Uztelecom, 375 of the company's base stations support the fifth-generation 5G communication standard. Such equipment is installed in all regions of Uzbekistan. Infrastructure development is aimed at improving the quality of mobile communication and the accessibility of internet services used for work, study, and daily tasks.
