Nokia And NTT DATA Expand Private 5G Partnership With New Deployment In Brownsville, Texas

(RTTNews) - Nokia has announced a global go-to-market partnership with the digital business and IT services company, NTT DATA, to advance Private 5G transformation in key sectors such as airports and smart cities.

The collaboration addresses the growing need and demand for reliable and modern connectivity solutions for critical business and municipal operations and is already demonstrating success with key customers.

The first North American deployment is an enterprise-ready, carrier-grade Private 5G Radio Access Network (RAN) for the City of Brownsville, marking a key milestone for the collaboration.
