아랍에미리트 수치가 뜻하는 것

중요한 숫자는 두 개인데, 모든 판매사가 인용하는 건 그중 하나뿐입니다. 일반적인 속도는 96 Mbps입니다. 상태가 좋을 때가 어느 정도인지 알려주는 숫자입니다.

읽을 값어치가 있는 건 10분위, 31 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.

아랍에미리트에서 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 Etisalat 및 du를 지납니다. 지금 쓰는 망이 나빠지면 여행 도중이라도, 요청하지 않아도 다른 망으로 옮깁니다. 그 순간에 방해하는 대신 옮기고 나서 알려드립니다.

아랍에미리트의 이동통신사

• e&: e& UAE had 16.5 million subscribers at the end of June 2026, up 6.4 percent in a year, after adding almost one million mobile customers over twelve months.
• du: du had 9.3 million mobile customers in the second quarter of 2026: 2.1 million postpaid and 7.2 million prepaid. The company tied the slip in prepaid to a significant decline in tourism over the quarter.
• Virgin Mobile: The UAE has two licensed network operators, e& and du. Virgin Mobile also sells mobile service but as a virtual operator, not a third network.
• e& and du: The regulator renewed the public telecoms licences of e& and du for 20 years, from 9 August 2026 to 8 August 2046, replacing the licences issued in 2006.

• The regulator announced in August 2021 that 2G-only devices would no longer be sold in the UAE from June 2022, as part of retiring 2G, which the country had used since 1994.
• e& set the end of 2023 as the date to finish shutting down its 2G network and listed feature phones such as the Nokia 105, Nokia 3310 2G and Samsung Guru that stop working on it. A 3G or newer phone left on a 2G setting must be switched over.

아랍에미리트의 5G

• In the n78 band e& holds 300 MHz, from 3,300 to 3,600 MHz, and du 200 MHz, from 3,600 to 3,800 MHz. In n41 du holds 2,496 to 2,596 MHz and e& 2,596 to 2,690 MHz.
• The regulator began allocating millimetre wave frequencies between 24.25 and 27.5 GHz for 5G in phases from September 2020, under the UAE Strategy for 5G and Beyond covering 2020 to 2025.
• In 2021 e& and du were each allocated 1 GHz of millimetre wave spectrum in the 25.5 to 27.5 GHz range. The regulator assigns spectrum on operator request under its national plan rather than through auctions.
• e& commercially enabled 5G standalone in 2023 and is rolling out 5.5G, also called 5G-Advanced, on it nationwide, starting with major cities, busy areas and key venues. Phones gain 5.5G through firmware support, and very old SIMs may need replacing.
• du launched 5G standalone in 2023 and installed hundreds of 5G-Advanced base stations after trials in October 2023. The regulator has also trialled 5G-Advanced in the 6 GHz range using 400 MHz of bandwidth.
• Both operators have rolled out standalone 5G since 2023. du reports 98.5 percent 5G population coverage, and e& is reported at a similar level, with virtually all significant towns and major transport routes covered.

• The renewed licences require e& and du to spread international connectivity across multiple land routes and submarine cables, remove single points of failure, and run disaster recovery plans that are tested regularly.
• In September 2025 failures on the SMW4 and IMEWE submarine cables in the Red Sea near Jeddah slowed mobile and home broadband on both Etisalat and du significantly on the Saturday night, with complaints still coming in on the Monday.
