Nokia seal the BT contract to phase out Huawei’s kit.

With Huawei being blocked from the UK’s 5G networks, Nokia are now set to take over!
The contract entails installing additional base stations and antennas to enable EE customers’ devices make calls and transmit data via the UK firm’s 5G network.

What does this mean for 5g?

BT are currently using Huawei equipment on two thirds of its 4G sites. As a consequence, there is going to be a large decommissioning job not to mention replacing the equipment. This may result in the UK being months if not years behind the rest of Europe for mobile coverage.

On the plus side there will be a substantial amount of work for engineers. At Bauhaus we supply staff into these areas so if you are looking for work please do get in touch.
