Vodafone Implements Ericsson System for Tunnel Connectivity
Ericsson and Vodafone collaborated on "a new era of tunnel connectivity” with the deployment of multiband mobile radio antennas in the Arlinger Tunnel near Pforzheim, Germany. The deployment “marks the first operational use of Ericsson’s advanced antenna technology from Ericsson Antenna System, precisely engineered to deliver robust and stable 5G coverage in tunnel environments subject to high levels of vibration and air pressure changes,” Ericsson said Friday.

Ericsson also announced a successful test of its 5G Radio Dot System solution in Taiwan. “The field test achieved peak downlink speeds exceeding 1Gbps at Taipei City Mall,” it said. The system reduces energy consumption by up to 45% compared with active distributed antenna systems, “offering a more sustainable and cost-efficient approach to indoor 5G coverage.”
