2027 master plan – a second ‘Set Sail’ 5G expansion plan aims for 85% 5G penetration and 75% of network traffic on 5G. The total number of 5G base stations in China reached 4.486 million as of the end of May (2025), according to data released by the country’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT).
Xinjiang plans to build 17 5G base stations in 2021, with the highest annual growth rate of 198.25%. Other provinces in the west and the center, including Qinghai, Yunnan, Hubei, and Henan, where small-scale 5G networks are mostly installed, have planned to multiply the number of 5G base stations.
According to the 14th FYP of the Information and Communication Industry Development, the enhancement of network supply and service capabilities requires large-scale commercial use of the 5G network, which implies that China will build the world's largest Stand-alone (SA) 5G network.
Known as the second “Set Sail” action plan, it prioritizes consumer-oriented applications and aims to: increase 5G base stations to 38 per 10,000 people; achieve 5G user penetration higher than 85%; ensure that over 75% of network traffic is carried via 5G networks.
