ZTE has partnered with Smartfren to support Ministry of Communication and Informatics of Indonesia to demonstrate the 5G applications in the manufacturing industry.
Telecom engineers of ZTE and Smartfren deployed 5G network in a logistics warehouse, and connected the 360-degree camera and the VR headset through the 5G network, transmitting images to the monitoring room in real time.
This demonstration adopts spectrum of 28GHz at 5G medium-high-frequency mmWave, and the maximum throughput using two carriers reaches 8.7Gbps, ZTE said in a statement issued on Friday.
“This demonstration case can be well applied for factory scenarios. Specifically, in case of a problem in the logistical and shipping path, a monitoring engineer can launch a drone to troubleshoot the problem at a short distance,” said Merza Fachys, president director of Smartfren,
The emergence of 5G technologies will greatly improve the automation of the real-time monitoring, improving productivity and efficiency, said Budiono Muljono, CEO of Smart.
