Turkcell signs agreement with ZTE/Netaş for Superbox
Turkcell and ZTE/Netaş signed a collaboration agreement to place ZTE/Netaş's next-generation fixed wireless access (FWA) solution into the Turkcell 5G Superbox to support Turkcell's broadband vision.
Turkcell outlined plans to extend high-speed broadband access to more users wherever 5G was available, while ZTE/Netaş described its role as continuing to supply Fixed-Wireless Access (FWA) solutions that assist operators with digital transformation efforts.
ZTE/Netaş's next-generation FWA solution combined 5G and 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) (Wi‑Fi 7) technologies and was described as providing Gigabit-level data speeds over 5G infrastructure, offering higher capacity, wider coverage, and optimized connectivity performance in multi-device scenarios within homes and offices.
The agreement positioned the ZTE/Netaş solution within the Turkcell 5G Superbox ecosystem to support Turkcell's broadband vision; Turkcell 5G Superbox provided fiber-speed internet over the 5G network without a fixed internet infrastructure and offered quick installation and low-latency connectivity in homes and offices.
Vehbi Çağrı Güngör, Deputy General Manager for Network Technologies of Turkcell, said: “As Turkcell, with the arrival of 5G, we are accelerating our efforts to offer our customers a high-quality and high-speed broadband experience in every environment. The new 5G Superbox, which we developed with ZTE/Netaş, will provide fiber-speed internet service wherever 5G is available, making a significant contribution to Türkiye's digitalization journey.”
Lin Zhi, Vice President of ZTE, said: “This collaboration with Turkcell is an important step in bringing our advanced FWA solutions to users in Türkiye. This next-generation solution, which combines 5G and Wi-Fi 7, will enable superior connectivity performance in homes and offices while also supporting operators in building future-ready infrastructure.”
The companies said the currently available Wi‑Fi 7 enabled Superbox 5G modems would be upgraded to 5G-compatible modems after 5G technology became available on April 1, 2026.
