From ultra-low latency to advanced services like network slicing, standalone 5G will support applications and technologies that will have a profound impact on our economy and society.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rogers also announced today it has expanded Canada\u2019s first and largest 5G network to 26 new cities and towns in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=XZDUS8BUDFaOgVUadddFRjpLlMErotJ08cU4zPmCDC4MY5hBaazH-so0J4_o7ArnyCE-GteCNA5dgvYhOjuRbr9mSNCK3wVHlaxpvxAVyvFZmiyAI_CulIYXfz-c8LiOvhlPEM0siFiD2-EaRRyCtttWk1-SdqxXJZzJbK9VsMFccTbmAUe7F6DRPvd4fsVU\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Alberta<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=txCNBXTwEF5mifqogz4UDJ_q1VZZ8nsgJXPn2NXdhN3omKUsDQwbrbzQmpx5V9AUk8qhyCI0rlZ5HtftvTG7dIoqq3_TBNoBuB5qX3DZA1uhAH2w2HMEWShTlg1scN-cnqLkj2r4xyZY1KanddEa3FKSmtlIY9TxAL3hsAnsstA_nU0LPcIJMIaM4VOgPlPob4fIHoUjoMaUy4kjy6aN9A==\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">British Columbia<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=-glid4mpvve2ttcn_FKgh7Bb3ZluEWrHE_vojdLXbjBW2bAJPCo1AFAI5MifSsnkg2aN4-ouOTR5_R4gHWPBA6AYZiNrOzEKHJmjxFH_hiiUF-KOd5UUu6fYeBCRY4xhWKaBX48tvNCB_Q-0Xy1TIw_ft88BnFA-MulK_hXtKmwishV8BrLmcfwKP39Xpo9d\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">New Brunswick<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=io92YKnU64NCuV0XidikudLpvFJZuAeuetdTHHgVcuDoqZfOkVyi1s286BO2X_WQjcO07-eAaWx6tW227GQ2GcffcUaoH51kY__yMo6ISADNYTqReMipiqEC6ba5a6pD0_a5UOYIB5UVKD3ZzFSgB9z04i-lozSG8wsjlDJjF6fTLcvTMIfP6hVnTa9YlXX5\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Ontario<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=LXvkHG_t_FXQYGoFcFG7_hzU5OOwclvPNRilFs9zDI0G4zyqb-YhkUZ8YjxhjDd0pFDbCBs9H3umiKJB49bpTQsV0eKvQQ1oBuXZyokiqrVLyxf__Xq7NLlQTjRji-_C8ibp_mvrLD8wZ3P-EDegNBAFeztRvFljyPxcgJAP4AE=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Quebec<\/a>, and now reaches 160 communities across the country.<\/p>\n<p>Standalone 5G will maximize the capabilities of radio spectrum to bring more 5G coverage to Canadians in the future. It will also help bring to life more advanced wireless capabilities, including:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>\n          <strong>Ultra-low latency<\/strong> will enable time-critical industrial automation applications. For example, interconnecting and controlling robotic machines on the factory floor to drive productivity and efficiency. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n          <strong>Network slicing<\/strong> will offer real-time, on-demand highways of 5G for entire industries and organizations, like a network slice for first responders that supports prioritized, ultra-reliable, low-latency data connectivity. For example, a command centre could support firefighters, equipped with augmented reality headsets that provide real-time visuals, information and communications to navigate through thick smoke, helping save lives.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n          <strong>Mobile edge computing<\/strong> will bring cloud computing power closer to the end users, enabling ultra-low latency for high value, mission critical applications. For example, a mine that operates autonomous haulage vehicles in real-time leveraging edge compute to improve safety conditions and accelerate service levels. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201c5G opens a world of possibilities for businesses, industries and everyday lives. With Ericsson being a global leader in 5G and offering a cloud-native dual-mode 5G Core solution for smarter networks to drive smarter business, Rogers will be able to offer a multitude of new business opportunities for mobile users and industries to the Canadian market. This solution will provide agility, programmability and flexibility to meet the growing needs of consumer and business demands,\u201d said Jeanette Irekvist, Head of Customer Unit Canada for Ericsson North America. \u201cRogers is committed to investing in a strong 5G network, and Ericsson is pleased to be a trusted partner on this journey. This is a major milestone to celebrate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rogers standalone 5G is powered by Ericsson\u2019s dual-mode 5G Core. Rogers partnered with Ericsson in 2018\u00a0as its exclusive 5G vendor for its full network infrastructure, including core and radio access network. Ericsson, Rogers and Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. have jointly completed standalone 5G testing on the latest Qualcomm<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Snapdragon\u2122 888 5G Mobile Platform that will power the next generation of 5G smartphones.<sup>2<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe transition to standalone 5G is an important milestone in the advancement of 5G, allowing for enhancements in quality of service, as well as enabling new business possibilities through the use of network slicing,\u201d said Durga Malladi, senior vice president and general manager, 4G\/5G, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. \u201cThis achievement today is the result of months of engineering collaboration among Rogers, Ericsson and Qualcomm Technologies, aiming to bring the benefits of 5G to Canadian users as early as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rogers 5G ecosystem also includes strategic partnerships to research, incubate and commercialize made-in-Canada 5G technology and applications with the University of British Columbia, the University of Waterloo, Communitech, Ryerson University Rogers Cybersecure Catalyst and ENCQOR.
