An indoor 5G network will be installed in the Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station by the end of this year.
上海虹桥火车站今年年底前将安装室内5G网络。
China Mobile Shanghai and Huawei jointly made the announcement on building the 5G digital indoor system (DIS) at the station, a major railway hub that handles 60 million passengers every year.
The network will cover the entire station by the end of 2019 to meet passenger demand for high-speed connectivity, said the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatization.
A 5G network in the railway station will be part of the effort to speed up the digital economy development in Shanghai, said Zhang Jianming, deputy director of the commission.
Shanghai is committed to building a smart city through investment in new infrastructure including AI, industrial Internet, and the Internet of Things.
The network will be able to handle twice the current data usage by passengers during the next Spring Festival travel season, said Zhou Yuefeng, chief marketing officer for Huawei Wireless Network Product Line.
