SYDNEY: Australian telecoms firm Telstra Corp will address competition concerns by de-registering some radio-communications sites that interfered with Optus’ plans to roll out its 5G network, the country’s competition regulator says.

The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) said it was concerned about Telstra’s registration of radio-communications sites in a low-band spectrum, which is likely to have hindered Optus from deploying its 5G network in Australia.
