An overview of the live 5G usage scenarios was given at the ceremony by Syed Amin Ul Haque, Federal Minister for Information Technology & Telecommunication, along with other dignitaries. Remote surgery, cloud gaming and a summary of anticipated 5G technology implementations in Pakistan were included in the demos.
In addition, during 5G trial in a restricted area, PTCL Group was able to achieve the highest data rate with download speeds exceeding 1.685 Gbps.
By connecting more people with robust purpose-built technology, 5G will support Pakistan’s digitalization, opening up opportunities for industries as well as people. This technology will allow future innovation in sectors such as distance learning, public safety, transport, health, manufacturing among others.
Importantly, not only for mobile operators like Ufone, but also for fixed-line operators like PTCL, who provide fixed-wireless servers, the technology can provide enabling levers for providing richer services and enhancing customer experience.
