GCT Semiconductor Holding (“GCT”), a designer and supplier of advanced 4G and 5G semiconductor solutions, has recently announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Samsung.
This partnership is set to accelerate the development of 4G/5G chipsets and modules and promote their adoption by device manufacturers. GCT will collaborate with Samsung to promote the comprehensive Samsung/GCT solution and to enhance the ecosystem of OEM/ODM device makers, thereby supporting wireless operators globally, including Saudi Arabia’s oil group, Aramco, in the 450 MHz and 4.0 GHz bands, mission-critical public safety, and more.
As the demand for connectivity continues to grow, 5G plays a pivotal role in delivering higher data speeds, greater reliability, and extensive network capacity. With GCT’s 5G chip, the company is committed to advancing the 5G ecosystem among OEM and ODM device makers, catering to CPEs, mobile routers, rugged industrial phones, IoT devices, and more. Samsung will contribute by providing testing environments and offering interoperability and device testing (IoDT) support for the certification of GCT’s chipsets.
“GCT is pleased to continue collaboration with its long-standing partner Samsung,” said John Schlaefer, CEO of GCT. “We look forward to expanding the 4G/5G ecosystem in Saudi Arabia and beyond, and supporting 5G and 4G wireless operators with their rising needs as they address increasing demand for faster data speed and more capacity.”
