Ericsson, Telstra and Qualcomm Technologies have achieved the highest ever 5G speed – an up-link data speed of almost 1 Gbps. The live demo, conducted on a commercial network in Queensland, Australia, is proof of how far, i.e. fast, the 5G network can go.

A study on the impact of 5G technology on buildings, power, transport, and industry across Europe has shown that new technologies could reduce CO2 emissions by as much as 40 percent. Ericsson published the analysis in its Connectivity and Climate Change report.

A1 Telekom Austria Group has chosen Scandinavian network equipment suppliers Nokia and Ericsson as partners in the rollout of 5G networks in the markets of Bulgaria, Croatia, Serbia and Slovenia.

A new study from Juniper Research has found that the total number of 5G connections will reach 3.2 billion by 2026, recording a growth rate of 940%.

Last week, Croatia started a real digital transformation. Namely, the completion of the public auction for the 5G spectrum created the last precondition for the implementation of the next-generation network technology.

The latest market analysis by Ericsson Mobility Report announces that the number of 5G subscriptions will increase by one million every day and reach 580 million this year.

Ericsson has launched Ericsson Private 5G for secure and simple 4G LTE and 5G standalone (SA) connectivity primarily – but not exclusively – focused on manufacturing, mining and process industries, offshore and power companies, as well as ports and airports.

According to analysts, the renewed US–Japan alliance to take on China’s dominance in 5G is an unrealistic illusion that is doomed to fail, given Chinese development of 5G infrastructure and their huge domestic application market.
