Digicel Fiji recently announced a- further FJD$13 million (US$6.2 million) upgrade to its LTE network. 

Over the last two years a massive FJD$30M has been invested in upgrade which saw most cell sites in the main centers upgrade to LTE Advance Pro Technology (Pre-5G) and increased LTE coverage in maritime areas.

 

As COVID cases rapidly rise, Digicel urges its customers and the public that we must continue to conform to the COVID safe measures that are currently put in place by the Government.  Digicel has also started a pledge with an “All in for A Safer Fiji” message aimed at driving vaccination awareness and a call to the nation that our fight against COVID will work ‘Better Together with Everybody All In’. 

Digicel Fiji CEO, Farid Mohammed
As a result of the overwhelming response to our All In campaign, this multi-million dollar investment in our network is critical at a time when we have seen additional demand for data during the COVID lockdown. We are committed towards continuously providing superior network experience to our customers. The network upgrade will deliver increased data capacity in major residential areas and also see the Digicel network coverage expanded in new areas. We are aiming at having these upgrade works completed by the end of October.
