• Emirates Integrated Telecommunications Company
- legal name; commercially rebranded as du
(February 2006).
• Competition in the UAE telecom sector started de
facto in early 2007 when du launched its mobile
network services ending nearly 30 years of
telecommunications monopoly by Etisalat.
• The company invested AED 1.7 billion in 2011 and
has a total of 4,993,600 active mobile subscribers,
623,7000 fixed-line telephony subscribers & 127,000
broadband internet subscribers.

broadband connectivity and IPTV services
to individuals, homes and businesses, and

SERVICE COVERAGE : This parameter measures the availability of service coverage
in the regions. Therefore it measures the network's ability to achieve the
minimum signal strength of - 100dBm.
Figure : Coverage Level in *Single Mode (2G) and **Dual Mode (2G/3G)

*Single Mode: Here the mobile device is locked to the 2G Network
(GSM) and not allowed to handover to the 3G Network (UMTS).
** Dual Mode: Here the mobile device is allowed to handover between
32. Criticism
‡ Little real competition; with choice of
provider generally determined by
geographic location.
‡ du typically has a monopoly on freezones,
while Etisalat has a monopoly elsewhere;
thus broadband internet provision in the UAE
is among the slowest and most expensive in
the world, with a current maximum
available speed of 24 Mbit/s.
33. Censorship
ØMarch 2008 - du began selectively blocking
VOIP traffic, preventing customers from using
the computer-to-phone functionality of VOIP
systems.
ØHowever, a specific exemption in the
telecom law permits the use of VOIP for
computer-to-computer calls, and so it is still
possible to access VOIP websites, download
VOIP software, set up accounts and use the
software to make computer-to-computer
calls, both audio and video.
34. Censorship
ØApril 14, 2008 - du started instituting the same
widespread censorship of the web practised by
Etisalat. Attempts to access content deemed
'inappropriate' by the UAE censor result in a
'blocked' page.
ØAs well as pornography, blocking includes
blogs, forums and news articles that are critical
of the UAE, as well as a proportion of sites that
seem to be accidentally blocked as they have
no obviously controversial content.
37. Fixed Telephony –Number of Fixed
Lines
• At the end of 2010,there were
approximately 1.5million fixed telephony
lines in the UAE. This represents 6% decrease

2009–2010 fell by 20% while number of
business lines increased by 7%.
38. Mobile Service
• The number of active mobile subscriptions increased
by2.4% between December 2009 and December
2010.
• Revenues generated from mobile services increased
by 3.4% in 2010,from AED17,787 million to AED18,400
million.
• Total SMS messages sent decreased by 9% between
2009 and 2010.
• Total MMS messages sent decreased by 25%
between 2009 and 2010
39. Internet Services –Revenue
• Internet revenues increased by 8% between
2009 and 2010 from AED2,532 million to
AED2,733million.
• This revenue growth can be attributed in part
to the increasing proportion of subscribers on
broadband rather than dial-up packages.
