Global advancements of 450 MHz Network

The 450 MHz spectrum is rapidly gaining global momentum as a strategic foundation for mission‑critical broadband communications, particularly for utilities and national critical infrastructure. 

With its unique propagation characteristics, 450 MHz enables wide‑area coverage, deep in‑building penetration and resilient network design—making it ideally suited for private LTE and 5G networks supporting energy systems, transport, public safety and industrial operations.

In this webinar, Noel Kirkaldy from Nokia and Gösta Kallner, Chairman of the 450 MHz Alliance, will explore how 450 MHz is evolving from a regional niche into a globally coordinated ecosystem. The session will highlight real‑world deployments, growing international alignment on spectrum and standards, and the expanding device and infrastructure ecosystem enabling long‑term scalability and resilience.

Bringing together a technology and ecosystem perspective, the discussion will examine:

• How utilities and critical‑infrastructure operators worldwide are adopting 450 MHz to modernise and future‑proof communications
• The role of 450 MHz network in supporting mission‑critical voice, data and IoT use cases
• What global collaboration through the 450 MHz Alliance means for interoperability, device availability and investment confidence

This session offers valuable insights for regulators, operators and industry stakeholders looking to understand where 450 MHz fits in the future of secure, sovereign and resilient broadband networks.
