5G site testing and troubleshooting mobile networks

March 21, 2022 | by Peter Busch

Commercial 5G rollout is happening now and more and more 5G non-standalone (NSA) sites are being deployed. Existing LTE infrastructure is being converted into dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) hybrid sites supporting 5G. An increasing number of private regional 5G networks in standalone (SA) mode are going into trial phase.
