MTS increased data traffic in the Moscow metro by 20% in 2024




MTS increased the volume of data transmission in 2024 on all metro lines by 20%, which is 2 times higher than the increase in mobile Internet traffic in Moscow as a whole. This was achieved thanks to work carried out this year to expand the network capacity and frequency resource by dividing coverage areas in tunnels and launching an additional LTE 1800 band in the busiest sections of the metro.

Previously, in 2021-2023, the company modernized its mobile communication network in the Moscow metro. For stable operation of voice communications and mobile Internet at speeds of up to 300 Mbit/s, MTS installs multi-band base stations on platforms and vestibules, and uses high-frequency slotted cable in tunnels.

The complex of works made it possible to ensure an increase in data consumption and comfortable mobile Internet speeds for passengers.

In October, the volume of data transmission in MTS networks in the Moscow metro reached 6,500 TB – a historical maximum. This figure is higher than the monthly Internet traffic in Voronezh or Nizhny Novgorod.

In September, the company launched a mobile network and high-speed Internet on the first section of the Troitskaya metro line, as well as at the new Sokolnicheskaya line station.
