This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Nightwalker-87 (talk | contribs) at 17:39, 27 August 2022 (→‎Commercial deployments: Update for Mozambique.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This is a list of commercial Long-Term Evolution (LTE) networks in Africa, grouped by their frequency bands.

Some operators use multiple bands and are therefore listed multiple times in respective sections.

General information

  • For technical details on LTE and a list of its designated operating frequencies, bands, and roaming possibilities, see LTE frequency bands.
  • Bands 33 to 44 are assigned to TDD-LTE.

Note: This list of network deployments does not imply any widespread deployment or national coverage.
