San Diego: The fast speed, which was showcased at Elisa’s flagship store in Helsinki, Finland, will support a range of new low-latency, high-bandwidth services, such as high-speed video downloads, mission-critical or virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) applications. The service is expected to be implemented in 2021.

The milestone was achieved by utilizing Nokia’s 5G mmWave technology and Qualcomm Technologies’ 5G smartphone form factor test devices over Elisa’s commercial 5G network. Nokia tweeted about this collaboration and its success.

  • The high speed enables more high-bandwidth and latency-sensitive enterprise services, such as remotely controlled devices for industrial needs or mission-critical applications.
  • VR/AR experiences
  • Downloading 4K video content or triple-A games in a matter of seconds,
  • Enabling enhanced capacity fixed wireless access connectivity as a fiber broadband alternative.

The move supports Elisa’s pioneering efforts to digitize Finnish society as a global leader in 5G services.

Sami Komulainen, executive vice president, production, Elisa, said, "Elisa was the first in Finland and amongst first in the world to deploy 5G. Reaching 8Gbps is a natural step in our 5G development and we want to explore the possibilities 5G offers and push the technology further to benefit our customers.”

Enrico Salvatori, senior vice president, and president, Qualcomm Europe/MEA, QUALCOMM Europe, Inc. said, “We are incredibly proud of this collaboration on this landmark event, which represents a significant milestone for 5G mmWave. Qualcomm Technologies’ research and development efforts to drive the next generation of wireless connectivity, along with our work with Elisa and Nokia, have made this milestone a commercial reality."
