스위스 수치가 뜻하는 것

중요한 숫자는 두 개인데, 모든 판매사가 인용하는 건 그중 하나뿐입니다. 일반적인 속도는 112 Mbps입니다. 상태가 좋을 때가 어느 정도인지 알려주는 숫자입니다.

읽을 값어치가 있는 건 10분위, 39 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.

스위스에서 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 Swisscom 및 Salt를 지납니다. 지금 쓰는 망이 나빠지면 여행 도중이라도, 요청하지 않아도 다른 망으로 옮깁니다. 그 순간에 방해하는 대신 옮기고 나서 알려드립니다.

• Swiss operators switched off their 2G networks between 2019 and 2023. Sunrise shut its 3G network in mid 2025 and Swisscom at the end of 2025, while Salt had set no date but was expected to keep 3G running until the end of 2026.
• Swisscom began phasing out 3G at the end of 2025 and set the final shutdown for 7 April 2026. It warns that 4G phones which still use 3G for calls stop working, and that a phone whose 4G symbol disappears during a call is not using VoLTE.
• Phones without 4G can no longer be used in Switzerland. Phones that use 4G for data but need 2G or 3G for calls, because they lack VoLTE, lose voice calling, and on some handsets VoLTE has to be switched on by hand in the settings.

스위스의 5G

• Swisscom switched on the first 5G network in Switzerland at midnight on 17 April 2019, at 102 sites in 54 towns including Basel, Bern, Chur, Davos, Geneva, Lausanne and Zurich.
• The 5G spectrum auction ran from 29 January to 7 February 2019 and sold 700 MHz, 1400 MHz and 3.5 GHz frequencies for CHF 379,292,728, on licences lasting 15 years. A fourth bidder, Dense Air, took part but won no spectrum.
• The 2019 licences required any holder of 700 MHz FDD spectrum to cover at least 50 percent of the Swiss population with its own infrastructure by 31 December 2024, and other holders 25 percent. A licensee that missed the target could have its rights withdrawn without compensation.
• By the end of 2025 Swisscom reached 99 percent of the population with 5G and 88 percent with its faster 5G+ layer. Sunrise covered over 99 percent with 5G, basic and standalone, and 79 percent with its 5G broadband layer.
• 5G reached 95 percent of Switzerland's land area at the end of 2024, up from 74 percent in 2021. 4G covered 98 percent of the land area and, in the regulator's rounded figures, 100 percent of the population.
• Sunrise 5G standalone needs a subscription enabled for it and a certified device, and on Apple devices also a SIM or eSIM with SUCI support. Access depends on manufacturers certifying handsets and releasing firmware updates.
