BT Sport's trialled the use of 5G technology for remote production of live sport during the EE Wembley Cup football match at Wembley Stadium in November. Coverage of the match was carried over the 5G mobile network and shown on YouTube. By opting for mobile networks rather than satellite transmission for outside broadcasts, BT Sport's's production team can work from their main broadcast centre in east London and only need a much smaller on-site presence at an event, thus saving time and money. The technology also enables the team to work on multiple events on the same day.
