Iran Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband Statistics and Analyses 2019 – ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Iran
– Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband – Statistics and Analyses”

report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s
offering.

There are two major mobile operators in Iran and mobile penetration is
considered to be high with a rate of 119%. Most citizens access 2G and
3G networks and in November 2014, the first 4G LTE network was launched
by MTN Irancell. While 4G LTE services are available, primarily in the
urban areas around one third of mobile subscribers don’t own a smart
phone. Initial testing of 5G began in Iran in 2017.

Prior to the US government reimposing economic sanctions again during
2018; the two major operators, MCI and MTN Irancell made great strides
in upgrading infrastructure, particularly 3G and 4G networks. Further
investment in both mobile and fixed telecoms infrastructure,
particularly in the rural areas, is required however in order to speed
up progress and lower costs for consumers.

Many unique challenges and opportunities exist in the Iranian telecoms
market. The publisher explores Iran’s telecoms sector in further detail
throughout this report along with analyses of the market, key industry
statistics, and information on the key developments and major players.

Recent developments:

  • The operators have recently agreed to offer national roaming which
    will assist to improve services in rural areas.
  • A significant development occurred in early 2018 when TCI began
    infrastructure sharing its fibre network with competitors.
  • Smart phone penetration is relatively low in Iran compared to other
    markets.
  • Iran is implementing its 6th Development Plan during 2016-2021.
  • The broadband operator, Iranian-net, is deploying a national fibre
    network.
