Orange and Ericsson achieve speeds above 15 Gbps and 4K video in real time over 5G

In collaboration with Ericsson, Orange has conducted a pioneering experience in Spain on the benefits of 5G mobile connectivity. Orange thus marks a new record in Spain, as he did at the time achieving 1.5 Gbps in his mobile Giga Lte and 10GBPS mobile network and symmetrical fiber.

Orange has marked new milestone in Spain, as he did at the time reaching 1.5gbps in his mobile network Giga Lte (October 16) and 10Gbps symmetrical on fiber (February 17). Within the framework of the collaboration agreement signed with Ericsson For the development of 5G mobile connectivity, both companies have carried out a pioneer experience to show the large performance that 5G mobile connectivity will offer.

To do this, and for the first time in Spain, two trials have been carried out: the first, with a device that simulates the experience of a user at street level, in which speeds greater than 15 Gbps have been achieved; And a second, in a vehicle in mobility, in which a 4K video in real time (streaming) has been seen in motion, on an outdoor urban tour. Both tests have been performed using real radio equipment, all orchestrated by a 5G base station that has provided the necessary coverage to the test terminals.

5G technology, the new generation of mobile broadband communications networks, continues in development to solve the explosion of the demand for communications, services and mobile applications that are expected; In the era of mobility, moving connectivity will become a priority need for users and professionals.

This technology, which is based on the construction of powerful and flexible networks will mean the birth of a new generation of experiences in all areas; Smart cities, the Internet of things, the era of machines, etc., but especially in mobile computer science, since the 5G movement will be the differentiating characteristic of this technology. All this will create opportunities for new use cases that we still can't even imagine.

The improvement of latency will also be notable. 5G technology will be built to handle all types of traffic with extremely low latency, and will not only allow many more devices to be connected at the same time, but also respond much faster to remote orders. That time between which an order is given and the device is called latency, and with this technology it is expected that end to end latency fall below 1 millisecond.
