Course Overview

With the technology offering faster speeds and more reliable connections than ever before, ultimately unlocking a diverse set of use cases from the Internet-of-Things (IoT) to mission-critical control, it is easy to understand the reasoning behind the hype. Yet, with the hype come high expectations on operators to deliver and, therefore, it is important that LTE operators contemplating the transition to 5G are prepared.

Through the utilisation of demonstrations, this 5 half-day programme offers delegates practical insight that will enable them to effectively.
