On April 9, 2019, Antel Uruguay was located in Latin America as the first operator with a commercial 5G network. As Natalia Pignataro, CTO of the state company, recalled at Big Players Map Day 2020, “the idea was to come with FWA to provide business services. It is a 5G Non StandAlone deployment, that is to say that we have 5G at the access level, but signaling and control are still by 4G”.
