Delays to South Africa’s analogue switch-off have held Rain’s new spectrum plans back.

Rain is trialling new products and packages for small and medium enterprises . However, it can’t launch until South African broadcasters switch off their analogue TV signals.

“Trials are underway, and once we have access to the sub-1GHz spectrum, some sites will be activated immediately.”“The 700MHz band cannot be fully utilised until the migration to digital broadcasting is fully completed, which is still expected to be by no later than the end of June 2022,” they said.Communications minister Khumbudzo Ntshavheni had set the analogue switch-off date at 31 March.

This would give mobile network operators time to migrate their services out of the spectrum Icasa had temporarily assigned for use during South Africa’s Covid-19 lockdown.
