Under the contract, Nokia will provide equipment from the AirScale portfolio, including base stations, high-capacity 5G Massive MIMO antennas and Remote Radio Heads (RRHs) to support different spectrum bands and ad hoc network software.
Ericsson’s energy-efficient 5G Radio Access Network (RAN) products and solutions (from the Ericsson Radio Systems portfolio) and E-band microwave mobile transmission solutions will be deployed in Jio’s 5G network. Reliance Jio plans to deploy a standalone 5G network that will be linked to the 4G network.
