(Telecompaper) Intel and Ericsson announced the completion of the first 5G-NR compliant live data call over the 39 GHz band in a lab-based trial conducted in Kista (Sweden) and Santa Clara (California).

"This live 5G demonstration on the 39 GHz band signifies how close 5G commercial services are to reality in North America," said Asha Keddy, vice president Next Generation and Standards at Intel, adding that the call is an important step in ensuring the company's commercial platforms are field ready for deployment in 2019.
