e& UAE has rolled out 5G-Advanced (5.5G) connectivity throughout the Burj Khalifa, delivering ultra-fast download and upload speeds to the tower’s highest observation deck and high-speed lifts. The deployment overcomes one of the world’s most challenging indoor environments, setting a new global benchmark for connectivity in super-tall structures.
Working with PROSE Technologies, e& UAE introduced an advanced lift-coverage system engineered to handle rapid vertical movement, harsh radio conditions, and limited installation space. The system ensures continuous connectivity, real-time performance monitoring, and proactive alarms, supporting unmatched reliability during lift operations.
e& UAE said the achievement demonstrates its commitment to network leadership and next-generation innovation. PROSE also highlighted the significance of implementing 5.5G capabilities in the world’s tallest tower, reinforcing confidence in the robustness of its wireless solutions.
This deployment strengthens the UAE’s position as a global leader in digital infrastructure and pushes new standards for indoor network performance.
