On July 3rd, 2019, the Ministry of Transport and Communications of Peru (MTC) published the Vice-Ministerial Resolution No. 463-2019-MTC/03, which modifies the R.VM. No. 268-2005-MTC/03.
Key Changes
In this resolution, the Permanent Multisectoral Commission of the PNAF recommends modifying the channels of the frequency band for the purpose of promoting the expansion of 4G technology and establishing appropriate conditions for the introduction of 5G technology in the country.
The resolution addresses the following key points:
I. Approval of Radio-Channel Provisions for Telecommunications Services, incorporating new bands channeling with nationwide scope:
- 1 710 - 1 780 MHz
- 2 110 - 2 180 MHz
- 3 300 - 3 800 MHz
II. Annulment of the Vice-Ministerial Resolution No. 456-2011-MTC/03, which approved the channeling of the bands 1 710 - 1 770 MHz and 2 110 - 2 170 MHz.
This 10 MHz widening of the channel provides a bandwidth of 70 MHz, creating an opportunity for Peru to engage in the new Telecom market of 5G technology within the medium frequency spectrum.
