PRESS RELEASEOrange Jordan and Aqaba Container Terminal (ACT) are taking a leading step in Jordan and the region after signing an agreement to establish a private mobile network for ACT using the 5G technology. This step will cater to ACT's needs and business requirements by providing the latest technologies and solutions, utilizing Orange's global expertise.
