Morocco’s telecommunications operator inwi has partnered with Huawei to commercially deploy a dual-band 1.8 GHz + 2.1 GHz 8T8R mobile network solution across the country’s major highways and high-speed railway corridors, strengthening connectivity for travelers and supporting Morocco’s digital infrastructure ambitions.
The deployment uses Huawei’s HyperBeamforming technology, which the companies say delivers a 13 dB coverage gain over legacy 2T2R networks. The solution extends mobile coverage by nearly one kilometre, improves average downlink user throughput by 83%, and increases active user capacity by 3.2 times, providing a faster and more reliable mobile experience in high-traffic transport corridors.
The rollout forms part of inwi’s broader strategy to enhance network performance across strategic mobility routes. By upgrading infrastructure in areas with high passenger volumes, the operator aims to ensure continuous coverage, improve service quality and deliver premium digital services to customers travelling across Morocco.
Jointly developed by inwi and Huawei, the dual-band 8T8R solution combines high-gain Hertz antennas with HyperBeamforming technology to create more precise signal beams, reducing interference while expanding single-site coverage by approximately 30%. The enhanced coverage also minimizes the need for additional base stations, helping lower deployment costs while improving network efficiency.
According to the companies, the deployment supports Morocco’s wider digital transformation agenda by delivering more efficient and cost-effective mobile infrastructure capable of meeting growing demand for high-quality connectivity.
The collaboration highlights the continued investment by telecom operators and technology providers in advanced wireless technologies that improve customer experience, optimize network performance and strengthen digital infrastructure across the region.
