Together with the 5G Synergiewerk and the
Stadtwerken Würzburg, O2 TelefÃ3nica has set up the first street light
with 5G technology to improve network coverage.
More locations for antennas are
needed to improve mobile coverage in cities. But the space on the roofs
is often expensive and time-consuming in the connection. Small radio
cells - so-called "small cells" - can remedy the situation, and the
network operator O2 TelefÃ3nica is now placing them in street lights in a
pilot project.
This project started in Würzburg on Versbacher
Straße in cooperation with the infrastructure specialist 5G Synergiewerk
and the Stadtwerken Würzburg. Discussions are currently being held for
further locations. According to its own information, O2 TelefÃ3nica
already operates more than 40 conventional mobile phone sites in
Würzburg.
The LED street lights integrate radio cells for
4G as well as 5G and thus allow data and voice transmissions. As part of
any urban infrastructure, these are widely used. They already have a
power connection, so that only one high-performance fiber optic
connection for the transport of mobile radio signals needs to be added.
