Vodafone Partners with Amazon's Project Kuiper to Expand 4G and 5G Networks Globally

5 Sep 2023 , 01:40 PM

Vodafone plans collaboration with Amazon’s Project Kuiper, a low Earth orbit satellite constellation. The aim is to expand Vodafone’s 4G and 5G networks in Europe and Africa. Project Kuiper’s high-bandwidth, low-latency satellites will connect mobile base stations in remote areas to Vodafone’s core networks.

This partnership eliminates the need for traditional fiber-based or fixed wireless connections. Amazon is set to test prototype satellites soon and deploy production satellites in 2024, competing with Starlink and OneWeb.

Vodafone and Amazon will extend high-speed broadband services to underserved communities globally and offer business solutions, including backup connections. Dave Limp, Amazon’s SVP for devices and services, sees expanded connectivity benefits in residential broadband, agriculture, education, healthcare, transportation, and finance. Vodafone’s CEO Margherita Della Valle highlights the partnership’s synergy with AST SpaceMobile’s work on a space-based mobile network. Telefonica has also partnered with Starlink to provide internet access to remote areas.
