AT&T launched a 5G business customer trial, using millimeter wave (mmWave) technology to power a 5G network experience in one of Intel's Austin offices. This is the first such trial launched in the US according to the company.
The operator worked with Ericsson to conduct its first public 5G demo featuring streaming 4K HD video, real-time camera feeds and reaching speeds of nearly 14 Gbps. Now, it's taking the 5G technology it worked on with Ericsson and Intel into the field to explore what benefits it can provide a real-world business customer.
During the trial, more than 1 Gbps bandwidth will let the operator test multiple enterprise proof of concept use cases. That includes internet access, VPN, unified communications applications and 4K video streams. The trial will showcase the potential of 5G VoIP over the 15GHz and 28GHz spectrum bands.
