Liu Jianhua, general manager of ZTE CCN products, said: "ZTE will continue to actively collaborate with China Telecom by participating in 5G technology research, specification development and tests, so as to help China Telecom achieve the large-scale commercialisation of 5G network, and build the new-generation, high-speed, large-capacity, intelligent communication network infrastructure."

This test is based on the latest 3GPP protocol framework, including: service-based architecture (SBA), mobility management, session management, PCC and QOS policy control, Xn interface switchover, N2 interface switchover, security management, network slicing, 4G and 5G bidirectional interoperability, VONR support and other service functions, as well as manual and automatic scaling, reliability processing and other virtualisation functions.
