Nokia 5G network solution to be deployed in 600MHz and 28GHz mmWave spectrum this year
Enables T-Mobile to meet consumer demand for massive broadband and address new opportunities for the industry
Leverages Nokia commercial AirScale radio platforms and cloud-native core, utilizing AirFrame hardware, CloudBand as well as 5G Acceleration Services
27 February, 2018
Espoo, Finland - Nokia and T-Mobile are to roll out a nationwide 5G multi-band network in the United States using the commercial Nokia 5G solution. Nokia will also further advance T-Mobiles existing 4G LTE network, providing advanced radio access network (RAN) support for 4G and 5G subscribers.
Nokia will begin building the network during the second quarter of 2018, completing the deployment during 2020. By the end of this year, the 5G RAN will be deployed using both 600MHz and 28GHz mmWave AirScale solutions for the delivery of multi-gigabit speeds and ultra-low latency in some of the most heavily populated areas of the country, including Dallas. This will enable T-Mobile to introduce innovative services for its customers at home, work and on the move.
Deployment of the 5G network in the 600MHz and 28GHz mmWave spectrum will be compliant with 3GPP 5G New Radio (NR) standards supported by the Nokia AirScale radio platform, powered by the new ReefShark chipset family and Nokias cloud-native core portfolio. Nokias 5G Acceleration Services will assist T-Mobile in launching 5G services in early 2019 in select key cities.
Neville Ray, chief technology officer of T-Mobile, said: T-Mobile customers will get 5G in more places than anyone else. Working together with Nokia, the Un-carrier will be the first to roll out a nationwide 5G network. Our customers already have the fastest LTE network, and it will work simultaneously with 5G to bring even faster speeds.
Nokias President and Chief Executive Officer Rajeev Suri said: We are excited to work with T-Mobile for their groundbreaking nationwide 5G rollout. Nokias 5G solution combines our high-capacity New Radio, Core and SDN controlled anyhaul transport and software, and incorporates innovations such as the new in-house silicon ReefShark chipset to deliver a new level of network performance. 5G is happening now, and no company is better placed to deliver than Nokia.
