China is set to launch what it bills as 'the world's first 5G railway station' this year with the technology from Huawei.
A 'super-fast' 5G network will be fitted to the existing Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station, which is one of Asia's busiest traffic hubs and handles some 60 million passengers a year.
A so-called '5G digital indoor system' is due to be fully installed in the train station in western Shanghai by September.
A few 'experience spots' have already been set up in the station's waiting hall to let passengers try the network.
The system is developed by Huawei and was unveiled in Shanghai. It has been chosen to serve the traffic hub by China Mobile.
It would allow passengers to download a 2GB high-definition film in less than 20 seconds, according to Huawei. In comparison, it would take three minutes and 20 seconds to download the same film on a standard 4G network.
