Network integration bearing fruit: O2 network in Munich achieves “good” rating in local connect network test with best LTE coverage

Telefónica Deutschland has already successfully completed the large-scale network integration project of O₂ and E-Plus, which is unique in Europe, in other cities and regions. The company is currently pushing ahead with integration work throughout Germany and is close to completing the integration in many areas. As part of the network integration, several tens of thousands of mobile communications sites are being modernised. At the same time, the network operator is focusing on nationwide LTE expansion: In the first half of 2018 alone, the company built well over 3,000 new LTE stations in urban and rural regions, thus expanded existing LTE capacities in the O₂ network. This corresponds to around 120 LTE upgrades per week. The new, improved O₂ network will form the optimal basis for Telefónica Deutschland to become the preferred partner for customers in the market - the Mobile Customer & Digital Champion.
