Enhanced Mobile Connectivity in Oberhavel Region by Telekom
In an effort to meet the growing demand for mobile connectivity, Deutsche Telekom is actively expanding its network in Landkreis Oberhavel, a district in Germany. The expansion aims to improve both coverage and capacity, ensuring reliable mobile services for residents and visitors.
Key aspects of the progress and plans include:
- New Base Stations: Telekom is installing new mobile sites in various locations within Oberhavel to fill coverage gaps and increase network reliability.
- Technology Upgrades: Existing base stations are being modernized to support higher LTE speeds and 5G connectivity, offering faster internet and better user experiences.
- Planned Additions: The company has publicly announced several planned sites aimed at rural and underserved areas to ensure broader mobile coverage across the district.
- Timelines: While exact completion dates vary by location, many upgrades and new installations are scheduled or underway throughout 2023 and into 2024.
With around 36,000 mobile network sites across Germany, Deutsche Telekom boasts the largest network, as confirmed by expert magazines such as Chip, connect, ComputerBild, and Imtest. The company's efforts in Landkreis Oberhavel are part of a broader initiative to provide comprehensive, high-speed mobile coverage in both urban centers and more remote communities, aligning with Germany’s national digital infrastructure goals.
Landlords who offer sites for mobile network expansion receive a long-term, location-appropriate rent. Interested parties can offer a site for a rooftop or mast location by contacting Deutsche Funkturm at www.dfmg.de/standortangebot.
The mobile network expansion has covered nearly 100% of the population in Landkreis Oberhavel. Notably, two LTE antenna sites were expanded over the past four weeks in the region, and the coverage along the Brandenburg-Nord-Berlin railway line has improved.
In addition to enhancing everyday connectivity, the mobile network expansion also supports emergency services. The Cell Broadcast warning system is available, sending danger alerts to mobile phones in the affected cell during emergencies like major fires, gas explosions, or floods. Emergency calls and warnings are possible at all sites in Landkreis Oberhavel.
Moreover, the mobile network sites in the region support the Advanced Mobile Location (AML) emergency technology. AML automatically sends the caller's location to the emergency control center during 112 calls, improving the speed and accuracy of emergency response.

Modernization of existing mobile antenna sites has occurred in Hennigsdorf and Hohen Neuendorf. The improved mobile network is expected to have a positive impact on the region's connectivity and digital infrastructure.
