Description

In this What’s Next with Aki Anastasiou interview, ZTE’s Charles Yang discusses the success of the Mossel Bay 5G Ultra-range Maritime Coverage Project — executed by MTN and ZTE.

Yang is the Director of Marketing and Solutions at ZTE South Africa, and plays a key role in the development and execution of projects like the Maritime Coverage Project.

Yang and ZTE approached MTN after identifying Mossel Bay Harbour as the best location to run the project — thanks to its popularity as a tourism destination and role as an economic hub.

In this What’s Next interview, Yang unpacks what the Mossel Bay 5G Ultra-range Maritime Coverage Project entailed.

He discusses the major goals that they achieved, as well as the biggest challenges ZTE and MTN faced.

Yang then expands on how ZTE and MTN overcame the typical range limitations of 5G technology to expand connectivity 22km out to sea.

He details the future plans of ZTE and MTN to leverage this technology in other South African coastal regions, and explains how the project aligns with ZTE’s long-term vision for Africa.

Yang concludes the interview by revealing the response to the successful project in the Mossel Bay region.
