Priorities and funded actions

Objectives

To support the early deployment of 5G-based systems that enable use cases for certain socio-economic drivers (SEDs)
To support 5G best practices beacons in different sectors that can serve as templates for possible replication with other resources, national or EU, or under other programmes
To demonstrate the potential capabilities and benefits of 5G networks and therefore stimulate the wider and faster deployment and take up of 5G across Europe

Priorities

Priority 1: to deploy 5G infrastructures capable of delivering leading-edge connectivity
Priority 2: to bundle the deployed 5G networks with a cloud-to-edge middleware stack capable of supporting the data-intensive use cases and applications required by the involved SEDs

Among financed actions

Support of the network infrastructure elements of the project, both active (5G radio equipment) and passive (when the installation and connection of additional base stations is necessary)
Installation of connectivity elements of mobile or fixed devices, such as antenna equipment, transceivers and connected sensors
Licenses and software for 5G connectivity
