브라질 커버리지

브라질 수치가 뜻하는 것

중요한 숫자는 두 개인데, 모든 판매사가 인용하는 건 그중 하나뿐입니다. 일반적인 속도는 49 Mbps입니다. 상태가 좋을 때가 어느 정도인지 알려주는 숫자입니다.

읽을 값어치가 있는 건 10분위, 12 Mbps 쪽입니다. 역 위 기지국이 가득 차고 주변 사람들이 모두 같은 전파에 붙어 있는, 하루 중 아래쪽 10퍼센트일 때의 속도입니다. 중앙값이 높고 바닥이 낮은 나라는 정작 필요한 그 순간까지만 훌륭하게 작동하는 나라입니다.

영상 통화나 테더링이 꼭 필요한 여행이라면 일반 속도가 아니라 혼잡 시 수치를 기준으로 계획하세요.

브라질에서 망이 붐빌 때 벌어지는 일

혼잡은 고장이 아니라 화요일 저녁입니다. 문제는 그때 eSIM이 무엇을 할 수 있느냐인데, 대부분의 여행용 eSIM은 할 수 있는 게 없습니다. 나라마다 도매 계약 하나, 망 하나, 길에 선 채로 다른 회사 eSIM을 한 장 더 사는 것 말고는 빠져나갈 방법이 없습니다.

여기서 Orbislo 트래픽은 Vivo 및 Claro를 지납니다. 지금 쓰는 망이 나빠지면 여행 도중이라도, 요청하지 않아도 다른 망으로 옮깁니다. 그 순간에 방해하는 대신 옮기고 나서 알려드립니다.

• Since 6 April 2025 Anatel no longer certifies mobile phones that work only on 3G or older technology, so every newly approved model supports at least 4G. Models certified earlier as 3G only may keep their certification.
• Phones certified from 6 April 2025 must support, with the feature switched on, voice calls over 4G (VoLTE), including emergency calls, and text messages over IMS, so their calls do not depend on 2G or 3G.

브라질의 5G

• Anatel has counted 5G lines since August 2021, when a 5G version sharing existing spectrum, known as 5G DSS, was already available in parts of the country along with compatible handsets.
• Under the 2021 auction rules, operators could start using the 3.3 to 3.7 GHz band from 30 June 2022 in state capitals and the Federal District, then in stages by city size, with 1 January 2026 set for all remaining municipalities.
• Each national 3.5 GHz winner must build 5G NR Release 16 stations on a contiguous carrier of at least 50 MHz, starting at one station per 100,000 residents in state capitals by 31 July 2022 and reaching one per 15,000 in every municipality above 30,000 people by 31 July 2029.
• The national 3.5 GHz winners also had to pay for moving free to air satellite TV reception from the C band to the Ku band, and for clearing 3,625 to 3,700 MHz of the satellite services that used it.

• Brazil had about 270.3 million mobile accesses in Anatel's figures for late 2025. Postpaid lines made up 64.7 percent of them against 35.3 percent prepaid. In 2018 prepaid had still been the majority, at 56.5 percent.
• The sale of Oi's mobile business in 2022 divided its customers among Vivo, Claro and TIM, cutting Brazil from four large mobile groups to three and sharply raising market concentration.
• The 700 MHz licence carries a duty to bring 4G to stretches of federal highway that had none: 10 percent by the end of 2023, 50 percent by the end of 2025, 90 percent by the end of 2027 and all of them by 31 December 2028.
• On highways and in places covered under these auction duties, the licence holder must also carry voice and data for customers of other Brazilian operators that have no service of their own there.
• Holders of 2.3 GHz spectrum had to bring 4G to all their assigned municipalities under 30,000 people by the end of 2024, a town counting as covered once a signal of at least minus 110 dBm reaches 95 percent of its urban area.
• The same licences oblige 4G at LTE Advanced standard or better in villages that lacked it, all assigned villages by 31 December 2028, each served by at least one base station inside the village with 50 Mbps of backhaul.
