"It's really exciting to roll out 5G connectivity for the first time in these two locations [Mudgee and Nyngan], meaning customers with Telstra 5G mobile devices can now enjoy a better mobile experience," Mike Marom, Regional General Manager for Telstra in NSW, said.
The 5G upgrades also brings added benefits for customers on the Telstra 4G network.
As part of installing 5G, Telstra has upgraded capacity on the existing 4G network, which means better connectivity and less congestion on the Telstra mobile network in these places when it's busier.
"We're continuing to expand our 5G network across New South Wales and nationally we're adding new sites to the network every week. Upgrades such as these continue to demonstrate Telstra's ongoing commitment to regional Australia," Mr Marom said.
Other nearby Telstra 5G enabled communities in the region include Gulgong, Dubbo, Narromine, Lithgow, Trangie, Warren and Cobar.
"For customers wishing to access 5G on the Telstra network, they will need a 5G capable device and have a Telstra 5G phone plan, so for some people, that may mean upgrading their current device," Mr Marom said.
There are now more than 3,700 Telstra 5G sites on-air in more than 200 cities and towns across Australia. 5G coverage is also available in more than 2,700 suburbs across the country.
More than 75 per cent of Australia's population now lives in Telstra's 5G footprint.
