Cambodia's 4G Overload Means Less Speed
Cambodia: 4G speeds drop as customer numbers increase
By: Robin Spiess - Posted on: August 9, 2018 | Business
Access to 4G mobile networks has steadily grown in Cambodia over the past six months, but the country’s telecommunications companies continue to struggle with maintaining 4G speeds as their networks grow
Cambodia’s network availability is greater than ever before, but its download speeds have dropped by up to 16.5 megabits per second in the past six months, according to a recent analysis conducted by Open Signal, a mobile analytics company.
“We often find this trend in countries as its 4G market matures,” explained Kevin Fitchard lead analyst at Open Signal. “As operators sign up more 4G customers, those customers start competing for the network’s capacity. That causes average speeds to drop.”
In a study conducted between April and June of this year, Open Signal collected more than 600 million measurements from 50,000 devices to determine mobile network responsiveness, availability, and download and upload speeds across Cambodia.
Cambodia’s two leading telco operators, CamGSM’s Cellcard and Smart Axiata, have expanded the reach of their LTE services, with Smart standing out as a leader in network expansion. While Cellcard continues to lead the way in overall download and upload speeds, however, average speeds have continued to fall as higher numbers of customers overload the networks.
