Nicaragua Reserves Frequency Bands for 5G Development

Published /Nicaragua

Frequency Bands Reserved for 5G

Through the administrative agreement AA N° 002-2022, published on November 25th, the Nicaraguan Telecommunications and Postal Research Institute (TELCOR) has reserved the 3400-3600MHz and 3600-3700MHz frequency bands for 5G network construction.

National Strategy Development

With this move, the agency has initiated planning to develop a national strategy along with a roadmap for the advancement of fifth-generation technologies in Nicaragua.

Mechanisms for Spectrum Allocation

Starting now through next year, TELCOR intends to develop mechanisms and rules for the allocation of radio spectrum identified for the technology, aligning with its national development plan.

Spectrum grantees will continue to use the spectrum, adhering to the allocation that was in effect during the time of allocation, as regulators complete the 5G spectrum reallocation process.

Temporary Suspension of New Authorizations

TELCOR stated in the administrative agreement that any new authorizations, assignments, amendments, or actions involving modifications or changes of spectrum usage rights will be temporarily suspended. However, these provisions do not include the fixed-satellite service.
