Jazz Introduces Pakistan’s First 480W Massive MIMO to Transform Connectivity

Jazz, Pakistan’s leading digital operator, has launched the country’s first 480W Massive MIMO solution, reinforcing its position as a pioneer in network innovation. This cutting-edge technology dramatically increases network capacity, enhances user experience, and sets new standards for digital connectivity in Pakistan.

Through a multi-phase evaluation of the advanced 480W platform, Jazz recorded an impressive ~340% cumulative gain, including a ~190% boost in traffic handling and ~150% improvement in throughput. By extending signal reach and improving performance at the cell edge, this solution directly enhances customer experience across the network.

Khalid Shehzad, Chief Technology Officer at Jazz, stated, “By introducing the industry’s first 480W Massive MIMO solution, Jazz continues its tradition of innovation and customer-centricity, redefining how Pakistan experiences connectivity. This rollout combines higher network capacity with a superior user experience, delivering stronger and smarter connectivity to millions of Pakistanis.”

The deployment features advanced capabilities such as intelligent beam shaping, uplink optimization, and full-antenna scheduling, ensuring stronger indoor coverage and smoother performance during peak-hour congestion. Designed to be future-ready, the 480W Massive MIMO is also 5G-compatible, enabling a seamless transition to next-generation services without disruptive hardware upgrades.

This milestone further strengthens Jazz’s role as a leader in shaping Pakistan’s digital future. By deploying scalable, next-generation technologies, Jazz ensures its network remains resilient and adaptive, supporting the country’s fast-moving shift toward a fully connected, 5G-enabled economy.
