BT Group has reached a major milestone with the first-ever real-world implementation of 5G Standalone (SA) network slicing capabilities on the EE mobile network.
The technology was trialled at Belfast’s Christmas Market last month, delivering faster and more reliable mobile payments in the bustling Lavery’s Beer Tent, BT said.
During the two-week trial, a dedicated slice of EE’s 5G network supported eight mobile payment terminals in Lavery’s Beer Tent.
