The Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority (TGDRA) announced that the National Laboratory has been equipped to inspect telecom devices with the latest technologies to examine mobile devices compatible with 5G technology, which aims to ensure that these devices meet the approved technical standards. The lab has the capacity to scan mobile devices that provide 5G services.
This step aims to examine, test and certify mobile phone devices compatible with 5G networks to operate on the UAE operators’ networks, and to protect users from using devices that do not meet the standard specifications, which may affect the safety of mobile networks as well as the users. It also helps government and private entities examine the devices before importing or buying them from abroad.
Through these upgrades, the National Lab will ensure that 5G devices conform to the approved international standards and are compatible with the telecom networks in the country. It also ensures their compliance with the UAE specifications such as early warning, in order to guarantee the devices’ compatibility with local networks and regulations.
