National roadmap for the 700 MHz band

Brussels, 22 October 2018 – The telecoms regulator publishes today its technical study on the impact of the current radiation standards in Brussels on the deployment of mobile networks. It concludes in this regard that, given the anticipated increase in data traffic and a desired deployment of 5G, these standards must be adapted.

This decision concerns the provision of specific broadband profiles on the network of Telenet. A broadband profile is a combination of features (downstream speed, upstream speed, maximum volume download). The offer of specific profiles aims at allowing alternative operators to differentiate themselves.

This impact study responds to the requests of the Minister for Telecom and the Brussels Minister for the Environment.
