The spectrum permit, granted through Resolution 498 of February 23, 2024, authorized Telecall to use the assigned spectrum for 20 years.
These commitments include deploying mobile infrastructure along road corridors, providing fiber-optic connectivity to 343 educational institutions, and expanding mobile infrastructure progressively in capital cities and municipalities with populations exceeding 200,000 people.
“The decision does not modify the essential conditions of the spectrum assignment nor reduce the obligations the operator assumed.”
During the process, Telecall completed the outstanding requirements that had triggered the investigation.
According to MinTIC, the permit duration, economic consideration, payment obligations, coverage commitments, school connectivity requirements, mobile infrastructure targets, and digital divide objectives remain unchanged.
