In related news, earlier this week New Zealand operator Spark confirmed that it is testing a cloud-based 5G network in collaboration with AWS and Mavenir.
The aim is to run two proof-of-concepts for standalone 5G with the two companies, as well as Nokia for cell site infrastructure and Oppo, for 5G devices.
