  • Turk Telekom has 43 million subscribers and its 4G LTE network now reaches 89 per cent of the population 
  • Its 5G strategy is at the very heart of Turkey's converged network.
  • New open-focused vendors are increasing the range of products available

Mustafa Ergen, Chief Technology Advisor, Turk Telekom, 5G PPP & ITU

Turk Telekom has 43 million subscribers and, as befits a former state telco, provides fixed line broadband access (retail and wholesale) and a wide range of mobile wireless services and applications. The operator's 4G LTE network now reaches 89 per cent of the population of what is an immense and often geographically challenging country. Mustafa Ergen explains Turk Telekom's 5G strategy and says that it will be at the very heart of Turkey's converged network. He also explains that open networking is increasingly important to Turk Telekom's network evolution. He says that as the ecosystem expands, with new open-focused vendors appearing on the scene and bringing concomitant increases in the range of products available, expectations of what both existing and new entrant vendors can bring to the party are rising rapidly.
