The Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport in south China's Guangdong Province has launched a 5G base station, making it the first 5G-covered airport in the country. The speed of the network can reach 1.14 gigabytes per second, around 50 times faster than the current 4G network, according to a test, state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
The base station was built by China Unicom's Guangzhou branch. It uses Huawei's 5G Lampsite, an in-depth radio coverage solution that supports indoor deployment in large to medium-sized sites.

Apart from the airport, Guangzhou also has 5G coverage in its city landmarks as well as important industrial parks.
