O2 switched on its 5G+ Standalone network in East Sussex, according to a report published by Telecoms.com. The rollout covers 14 large towns and cities, 16 smaller towns, and 252 rural villages, including Brighton & Hove.

O2 described the deployment as 5G+ Standalone, meaning a 5G network built on standalone core infrastructure rather than relying on older 4G core systems. The reported East Sussex footprint totals 282 locations across urban and rural areas.

O2's East Sussex rollout adds to the UK operator shift toward 5G Standalone deployments, which operators use to support newer 5G network capabilities. In the UK market, standalone 5G rollouts are a key part of network upgrades as operators expand coverage beyond major cities into smaller towns and rural communities.
