JTOWER Inc. and Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd. have entered into a basic agreement for the promotion of 5G network development and sales collaboration by utilizing Infra-Sharing. Under this agreement, the companies will promote the use of JTOWER's Infra-Sharing solutions at some facilities owned and operated by Mitsubishi Estate. First, they plan to jointly implement 5G installations in some buildings in Marunouchi and Otemachi areas as well as in Nagoya area.

In addition, they will develop the joint business utilizing Multi-function poles in areas where Mitsubishi Estate promotes urban development, including Yokohama Minatomirai area and going forward, they will also proceed with discussions on the sales collaboration of Infra-Sharing, aiming to provide new value that leverages the strengths of the two companies. Infra-Sharing is a solution for sharing mobile communications networks, which has been independently developed by each mobile network operator traditionally. In addition to reducing costs and enabling more efficient network development, Infra-Sharing also reduces environmental impact by reducing power consumption, material, and construction work.

In particular, in the development of 5G networks, more base station installations are required due to the characteristic of its spectrum, and the use of Infra- Sharing is expected to expand further.
