The test is based on network slicing technology, which streams high-quality live videos from smartphones over a 5G connection. Transmission of video signals over a high-performance mobile network increases production efficiency. The 5G solution will allow journalists to broadcast live from any event or venue.

To Matthias Dang, Co-CEO of RTL Deutschland: Real-time video with 5G makes mobile TV reporting even easier. In our tests, Telekom’s standalone 5G network managed to exceed the high requirements of TV operations in terms of signal transmission. The network is safe and reliable. This innovation is perfectly integrated with the use of smartphones. This allows our journalists to focus more on what matters: conveying independent information from anywhere, at any time.
As for Claudia Neamat, Head of Technology and Innovation at Deutsche Telekom, she believes that thanks to 5G Standalone, all future live TV technologies will be within everyone’s reach. For her, a 5G solution will revolutionize mobile journalism.
