📋 Tender Overview
Installation of 5G antennas is becoming more dynamic and there are already more than 2,800 antennas in the national territory.The expansion of telecommunications in the country registered sustained growth, exceeding 64,000 4G technology antennas at the end of the third quarter of 2025, reported the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MTC).
This infrastructure has established itself as the main mobile technology in Peru and demonstrates the process of modernization and technological transition of the networks in the last eleven years. In 2015, the country had around 4,500 4G antennas.
Likewise, the MTC specified that the installation of 5G technology maintains a dynamic increase, with growth of more than 600%, going from less than 400 antennas in 2021 to more than 2,800 at the end of the third quarter of 2025.
After the signing of the concession contracts for the allocation of radio spectrum in the 3.5 GHz band with the operators Bitel, Claro, Entel and Integratel (Movistar), the MTC estimates that the closing of connectivity gaps will accelerate through greater telecommunications infrastructure, which includes investment and coverage commitments.
For the citizen, this translates into better coverage, higher internet speed and more stable services to study, work, undertake and access State digital services. We are building a more robust network that will allow the development of new technologies, strengthening productivity and generating more opportunities for all Peruvians, declared the Minister of Transportation and Communications, Aldo Prieto Barrera.
Furthermore, the deployment of this infrastructure allows improving the quality of life of Peruvians, especially in rural areas of the country.
In this sense, the Minister of Transportation and Communications pointed out that this technology will promote greater adoption of solutions based on artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT) and other tools that will contribute to the productive development of the country.
