Telia is deploying the first public 5G live network use cases in Europe in collaboration with Ericsson and Intel. This includes a high-speed 5G connection to a commercial passenger cruise ship delivering internet connectivity to the ship and its passengers while in port, and an industrial use case featuring a construction excavator remotely controlled with a live 5G network.
The move is an important milestone in the global 5G roadmap, moving Ericsson, Intel and Telia, and more importantly Telia customers, closer to the goal of bringing 5G services to life in 2018 in both Tallinn and Stockholm, two of the world’s most digitalized cities.
