TeleGeography reports that Rock mobile was awarded Jamaica’s third mobile licence in May 2021, with the obligation to launch commercial services within a year of receiving the permit and to be “fully operational” after another year.
In January 2022 Rock tapped Nokia to build out its LTE-based fixed wireless access (FWA) network, but noted that it would not reach 95% population coverage until 2025.
