Vodafone, A1 Group, and Ericsson have successfully established the first 5G Standalone (5G SA) international roaming connection between operator groups.
The connection between Vodafone in Germany and A1 Bulgaria aims to improve the responsiveness and reliability of roaming services, particularly for businesses with operations in multiple markets.
The implementation of 5G SA allows for faster and more reliable delivery of low-latency industrial applications and new services, including private network slicing for enterprises and public sector organizations.
This achievement paves the way for commercial 5G SA roaming, supporting high-quality voice calls, picture messaging, video streaming, and fast data services.
