Niam Chooses Netmore's Turnkey 5G Solution for Rollout of Open 5G Infrastructure in Its Nordic Property Portfolio Niam chooses Netmore as its 5G operator when they begin the implementation of open 5G infrastructure for indoor use in their properties. Netmore delivers a turnkey 5G solution without any need for CAPEX investments or operation and maintenance work for the property owner (5G-as-a-service). The solution enables property owners to use the technology themselves, while mobile operators can use the infrastructure and offer 5G services at the location. By doing so, Niam and Netmore initiate an extensive venture that begins with a pilot in Niam's properties in one of Stockholm's new districts (Värtahamnen), along with selected properties in the other Nordic countries. Following this, the ambition is to establish the open 5G technology throughout large parts of Niam's property portfolio in the Nordic region. Because Niam's property portfolio is equipped with Netmore's 5G solution, it also means that the properties will be connected to Netmore's property network and will therefore take part of Netmore's complete property offer. The flagship product, Netmore Proptech Node, is installed in each property, thereby giving property owners and property managers full control and access to their digital environment. With the help of the node, a foundation is laid for secure, digitized and efficient property management. In addition to 5G compatibility, Netmore Proptech Node also offers support for fiber connections, Wi-Fi and LoRaWAN. Netmore's turnkey 5G offer to property owners is specifically designed to suit the particular conditions that arise when establishing the new technology on a large scale. The secure solution is adapted to extensive rollouts at high speed and does not require CAPEX investments. Additionally, Netmore introduces a transparent pricing model for all stakeholders using the infrastructure. Furthermore, the maintenance and management of the network is carried out by Netmore, which in its role as operator of 5G networks in real estate, ensures that the technology is of the highest quality and is adapted to the various needs arising from 5G technology usage.
