Chilean operators Claro and Entel were the only bidders in Chile’s second 5G spectrum auction, local press reported.
The main aim of the tender is to award up to five blocks of 10 megahertz each in the 3.5GHz spectrum band. The airwaves do not make up a continuous block. The regulator previously said it plans to rearrange the 3.4 GHz-3.6 GHz band upon the completion of the tender, so that the blocks awarded in the auction are “continuous, and that the rest of the blocks granted in [this] band are left with the least dispersion and greatest possible continuity”.
