モーリシャスの通信エリア

モーリシャス の数値が意味すること

重要な数値は2つあり、どの会社も引用するのはそのうち1つだけです。一般的な速度は52 Mbps。調子のいいときがどれくらいかを示す数字です。

読む価値があるのは10パーセンタイル、13 Mbpsのほうです。駅の上の基地局が混み合い、周りの全員が同じ電波につながっている、その日の下位1割のときの速度です。中央値が高くて下限が低い国は、本当に必要になるその瞬間まではみごとに動く国だということです。

ビデオ通話やテザリングが欠かせない旅なら、一般的な速度ではなく混雑時の数値を基準に計画してください。

モーリシャスで回線が混んだときに起きること

混雑は故障ではなく、火曜の夜です。問題は、そのときeSIMに何ができるかで、たいていの旅行用eSIMの答えは「何もできない」です。国ごとに卸契約が1つ、ネットワークが1つ、路上に立ったまま他社のeSIMをもう1枚買う以外に逃げ道がありません。

ここではOrbisloの通信はEmtel、my.tを通ります。いま乗っているネットワークが劣化したら、旅行の途中でも、お客様が頼まなくても別の回線へ移します。そのときに邪魔をするのではなく、あとからお知らせします。

モーリシャスの携帯キャリア

• my.t: Mauritius Telecom, which sells mobile service as my.t, is the largest operator with about 61 percent of the market at the end of June 2023, according to Omdia. Emtel had almost 22 percent and CHiLi, the mobile brand of Mahanagar Telephone Mauritius, 17 percent.
• my.t: Omdia estimated that at the end of June 2023 about 54 percent of my.t customers were still on 2G, 21 percent on 3G, almost 20 percent on 4G and about 5 percent on 5G. Emtel's base was split more evenly, with roughly a third each on 2G, 3G and 4G.
• Emtel: In August 2026 the regulator designated Emtel as universal service provider for Raphael Island in the St Brandon archipelago. Emtel will deliver 34 Mbps down and 12 Mbps up over a low Earth orbit satellite link for the coast guard, the weather service and the island's fishing company.

• The government endorsed phasing out 3G on 3 October 2025. The operators have started decommissioning their 3G networks, each on its own schedule, and have confirmed that 3G service will end by 2028 at the latest.
• Devices that rely only on 3G, including some older phones, vehicle trackers and machine to machine equipment, stop working once the networks are decommissioned. The regulator has asked the public to stop importing and using 3G-only devices and to switch to 4G or 5G equipment.

モーリシャスの5G

• On 17 June 2021 the regulator granted 5G spectrum licences to Cellplus, Emtel and MTML, one 100 MHz block each. Emtel received the block below 3 GHz, MTML the lower part of the 3.5 GHz band and Cellplus the upper part.
• There was no auction for 5G spectrum. Each operator named its preferred block and committed to timeframes for reaching set coverage percentages on mainland Mauritius and the outer islands, and the regulator awarded the blocks on those commitments.
• On 22 December 2025 the regulator opened the 700 MHz band, 2x30 MHz in the 703 to 788 MHz range, to the mobile operators for testing IMT networks, including 5G. Once tests succeed it will invite applications for network spectrum licences in the band.
• my.t launched 5G in mid-2021. Emtel followed in 2023, saying its network already covered 60 percent of the population and that it aimed to cover the whole island by 2024.

モーリシャスのネットワークについて

• At the end of 2024 Mauritius had three mobile operators and 2,195,100 mobile subscriptions, or 176.4 per 100 inhabitants, and 99 percent of the population lived in areas covered by a mobile network.
• Mauritius was the first market in the African region to launch a mobile network, in 1989, and the first to offer 3G, in 2004, according to the chairman of the ICT Board.
• In April 2024 a disturbance on traffic through the SAFE submarine cable disrupted internet access in Mauritius, along with one bank's ATMs and card terminals, until late the same day. SAFE was then one of only two international cables landing on the island, alongside T3 to South Africa.
• Mauritius Telecom carries international traffic over the SAFE, LION and LION2, MARS and T3 cables, all with points of presence on the island, and buys partner capacity on routes including EIG, PEACE, SeaMeWe-5, WACS, SAT-3 and Equiano.
• Rodrigues has been connected to Mauritius since 16 February 2019 by the MARS submarine cable, more than 550 km long with a design capacity of 16 Tbps, built to give the island internet access comparable to the main island's.
• Since 11 May 2026 the regulator's KaliteNet app and website let users in Mauritius, Rodrigues and Agaléga test their connection, measuring speed, latency, signal strength and coverage, with anonymised results sent to the regulator.
• On 9 June 2026 the regulator met the mobile operators about weak coverage found in KaliteNet data, including the Salazie to Pont Bon Dieu road, which had been raised in Parliament. The operators cited delays in getting permits for new sites.
