He said Telstra was "pioneering the way forward" with 5G technology, making it available to regional customers.
"People living in Inverell now have a chance to be part of that cutting edge."
The recent 5G network upgrade will also deliver improved 4G capacity and speeds in the local area.

More than 60 per cent of Australia's population now lives in Telstra's 5G footprint and Telstra has made a commitment to roll out its 5G network to 75 per cent of the population by the end of June 2021.
