Under the new frame agreement, Comba Telecom will equip du with base station antennas and ancillaries to enhance its network expansion and evolution. This new frame agreement will build on the existing frame agreements that Comba signed with du in 2021 for supplying IBS passive products and repeaters, further strengthening Comba Telecom’s position as a vendor in the UAE telecommunications market.

Annabel Huo, senior vice president of group and president of Comba Telecom International, says, “We are excited to be awarded the multi-year frame agreement with du. This new agreement is a testament to our commitment to enabling du to build future-proof, high-efficient, and green network infrastructure through technology and product innovation. It further solidifies our position as a trusted and reliable vendor in the telecommunications market.”

Comba Telecom continues to explore and innovate new technologies and has released the forward-thinking HelifeedGreen Antenna product series that incorporates green and low-carbon design concepts throughout the entire product life cycle, to support operators in achieving carbon neutrality targets worldwide. The HelifeedGreen Antenna has been verified in multiple tier-1 operators’ trial networks to create additional antenna gains over traditional antennas to cut site energy consumption. 

Saleem AlBalooshi, chief technology officer at du, says, “We are thrilled to collaborate with Comba Telecom in driving transformative change within the evolving digital landscape through the du network. du provides best-in-class network infrastructure and smart networks that transform lives and businesses across the UAE. As we focus on innovation, performance, and pragmatic industry leadership, Comba’s exceptional track record and cutting-edge antenna products align perfectly with our commitment to meeting the diverse needs of our customers, enabling digital transformation and delivering the best network experiences.”
