"In a "first-of-its-kind" test in the country, Italian operator Fastweb + Vodafone has revealed that a trial on its commercial 5G network in Rome has achieved a peak speed of 2.5 Gbps, marking a significant milestone for next-gen mobile and potentially transforming Italy's digital landscape. The trial was conducted in collaboration with mobile technology providers Honor, Qualcomm Technologies and Xiaomi. Fastweb + Vodafone claims it is set to revolutionise connectivity, paving the way for 5G Advanced, enabling support for advanced applications, and unlocking next-generation services based on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning."
"Six carriers were aggregated to conduct the trial: five 4G LTE bands and one 5G New Radio (NR) based entirely on 5G transmitters, along with 1024QAM modulation applied on the 5G NR component, creating a network architecture that uses advanced techniques to increase spectral efficiency. The evolution of the mobile network to 2.5 Gbps was achieved through the technology partners."
"Fastweb + Vodafone is engaged in a process of enhancing its network infrastructure, with the aim of improving the quality of indoor and mobile services. Fastweb + Vodafone has already launched the configuration, targeting high-traffic radio stations in Rome and Milan, to make more efficient use of the frequency spectrum and offer its customers better quality connectivity services. Among the innovations unveiled were two projects currently being implemented. The first involves the use of smart devices on 4G radio stations to improve the performance of wireless systems which, with the use of AI-based functionality, are able to improve coverage in offices, shopping centres and public places."

The trial aggregated six carriers—five 4G LTE bands and one 5G NR—applying 1024QAM on the 5G component to boost spectral efficiency. The operator is upgrading infrastructure and has deployed configurations at high-traffic radio stations in Rome and Milan to improve indoor and mobile service quality and spectrum use. Two ongoing projects use smart devices on 4G stations to enhance coverage and AI-driven optimisation to automatically adjust network parameters for traffic balancing and energy efficiency.
