Taiwanese mobile operator Asia Pacific Telecom (APT) has selected Nokia to be its sole 5G New Radio (NR) and 5G core (non-standalone and standalone) vendor. Nokia will provide its AirScale Radio Access solutions to APT’s network, which will make of use of the carrier’s high-band 28 GHz mmWave in Taiwan to deliver ultra-fast mobile broadband speeds.
“APT is pioneering the implementation of high-band 5G at 28 GHz mmWave in the region with Nokia as its sole supplier,” commented Tommi Uitto, president of mobile networks at Nokia. “We look forward to helping APT execute its strategy and deliver compelling and transformative experiences, using Nokia’s end-to-end 5G solution to business and consumers alike.”
