薩爾瓦多的網路涵蓋

薩爾瓦多 的數字代表什麼

有兩個數字重要，但每家業者只引用其中一個。一般速度為 34 Mbps，它告訴你順的時候是什麼樣子。

值得看的是第十百分位，8 Mbps。那是一天當中最差的那一成：車站上方的基地台塞滿了，你周圍的人全都掛在同一個訊號上。中位數高、底線低的國家，就是那種一路順到你真正需要它的那一刻的國家。

如果這趟行程少不了視訊通話或熱點分享，請以忙碌時的數字來規劃，而不是一般速度。

在薩爾瓦多網路壅塞時會發生什麼

壅塞不是故障，是星期二晚上。問題在於你的 eSIM 能拿它怎麼辦，而多數旅遊 eSIM 的答案是：沒辦法。一個國家一份批發合約、一張網，站在路邊除了再跟別家買第二張 eSIM 之外沒有出路。

在這裡 Orbislo 的流量走 Tigo 和 Claro。你所在的網變差時，我們會在旅程中途、不必你開口就把你換到另一張網，事後才告訴你，而不是當下打斷你。

薩爾瓦多的行動電信業者

• Claro: Claro El Salvador belongs to América Móvil. In the December 2019 AWS auction it won four of the twelve 5+5 MHz blocks on offer, bidding against Tigo, the only other participant. Three blocks, 30 MHz in all, went unsold.
• Claro: América Móvil tried to buy Movistar El Salvador as Telefónica left Central America, but the deal never closed because of competition conditions set by the regulator. América Móvil kept the Guatemalan unit instead.
• Tigo: Tigo says its 4.5G network reaches 95 percent of the population, about 5.7 million people, and that 5G is being added on top of that network step by step.
• Tigo: Tigo, the Millicom subsidiary, took five 5+5 MHz blocks in the December 2019 AWS auction by direct award, because it was the only registered bidder for that part of the band.
• Movistar: Movistar is run by General International Telecom El Salvador, a group of Salvadoran investors backed by Banco Atlántida. It bought 99.3 percent of Telefónica Móviles El Salvador for US$144 million, a deal completed in January 2022, and holds about 27 percent of mobile users.
• Movistar: Movistar was the only bidder for 30 MHz of extended AWS spectrum, 1,755 to 1,770 MHz paired with 2,155 to 2,170 MHz, which SIGET awarded to it in 2023 with nationwide coverage for 20 years to expand its 4G network.
• Digicel: Digicel, with about 13 percent of mobile users, agreed in September 2026 to sell its Salvadoran business to the owner of Movistar. The deal still needs regulatory approval and is expected to close in the first half of 2027.

薩爾瓦多的 5G

• Tigo switched on the country's first commercial 5G network on 28 October 2025, at 70 sites around greater San Salvador, Nuevo and Antiguo Cuscatlán and Puerto de La Libertad. It did not disclose which frequencies the network uses.
• Movistar's network branded 5G Ready is advanced 4G LTE running on its 850 MHz and 1,900 MHz spectrum. The company itself said in 2023 that no operator in the country then had 5G technology.
• As of July 2026 the tender for dedicated 5G spectrum was still pending. Tower company Proyectos Terrestres estimated that national 5G coverage would need 1,500 to 2,000 new sites, with shorter masts of 18 to 21 metres.

薩爾瓦多網路須知

• More than 12 million mobile lines were active at the end of 2025, up 7.5 percent in a year, with close to 85 percent of them prepaid. It reports mobile coverage over 96 percent of the national territory.
• El Salvador has no submarine cable and relies entirely on land links through neighbouring countries for international traffic. SIGET picked Liberty Networks in December 2025 to build the first one, due in service in the second half of 2028.
• Before the December 2019 AWS auction, El Salvador had only 207 MHz of spectrum available for mobile services. That auction, the first of its kind in 20 years, offered 120 MHz more.
• SIGET granted Tigo a temporary nationwide concession of 30 MHz in the 700 MHz band under resolution T-0705-2026, valid for 60 days from 31 July to 28 September 2026.
• SIGET's quality regulation defines an operator's coverage area as a place where users have better than a 90 percent chance of reaching the network, and caps dropped calls at 3 percent a month for each technology.
• The same regulation sets minimum monthly average download rates of 500 kbps on 3G and 1,700 kbps on LTE inside each operator's declared coverage area, measured daily between 6:00 and 23:00.
• In 2023 Movistar was moving radio equipment onto sites that had only broadcast 3G so that they would carry LTE, as part of a second investment phase of about US$50 million.
