Optus и travel eSIM в Австралия

Optus: коротко

Optus has retired 3G (UMTS 2100 in 2022, UMTS 900 by October 2024) and runs LTE and 5G, with 5G on 900, 1800, 2100, 2300 and 3500 MHz.

Optus's bands and technology

An eSIM can only use Optus if your phone supports at least one band in this table. Before you fly, open your model's spec page on the maker's site and compare its LTE and 5G band lists.

Optus's coverage map

Optus publishes its own coverage map. Look up the street or district you will stay in rather than the country as a whole, because coverage in town and out of town differs a great deal. The map shows Optus's own network; a roaming plan may not get every technology it shows.

Who licenses Optus

Mobile networks in Australia are licensed, and their spectrum assigned, by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA). The bands above are the ones it allocates. A problem with the local network's own service goes to the operator first; a problem with your eSIM plan comes to us.

Тарифы в нашей линейке, где указана Optus

From the supplier record behind each package, 81 of the 81 plans we currently sell for Australia declare Optus as a network the profile can reach, at 5G. The figure comes from the same catalogue that prices the plan pages, and it moves when the supplier revises the record.

Почему в планах не указана фиксированная сеть

Nearly every travel eSIM is a roaming product: the profile picks a network by an order the supplier sets, not by the buyer. If Optus is weak where you are, try selecting Telstra or Vodafone AU (TPG) manually in the network settings, and keep data roaming on for the eSIM profile.
