Scale your differentiated connectivity offerings

The telecommunications industry is undergoing a fundamental transformation, moving beyond the limits of the traditional, one-size-fits-all, best-effort mobile broadband business. The destination is a paradigm where communications service providers (CSPs) offer differentiated connectivity services with performance as the new value proposition. All enabled by high-performing programmable networks

The stream of a lifetime. A broadcaster breaking news. A million-euro deal that just can’t wait. There are moments that matter, and moments that matter more. Enabling these kinds of moments is what turns differentiated connectivity from an idea to a valuable business and why high-performing programmable networks are so crucial to invest in

Get the right performance

Establish a robust, high-performing 5G standalone network that is ready for anything. Our networks are optimized for performance, open and powered by AI. They have the capacity to deliver consistent performance for any use-case, optimize energy efficiency, and reduce cost through operational automation.

That’s high-performing networks.

Scale real-time delivery

Our programmable networks can understand service intents and deliver differentiated connectivity in the moments that matters to your users. Powered by AI, they become intent-driven and service-aware and dynamically adapt themselves to the services your users are consuming in the moment with the right and consistent performance.

That’s programmable networks.

Simplify operations

Scale your intent-driven approach across every network domain to simplify differentiated connectivity operations, accelerate on-demand service delivery and slash operational costs. With programmable networks and open platforms as your base, you tell your network what you need—and let it decide how to make it happen. Accelerate your path toward a fully autonomous network today.

That’s autonomous networks.

Operators that focus on 5G performance and quality are 3x more likely to retain customers and 2x more likely to grow ARPU.

To deliver on the promise of differentiated services, networks must have a robust, high-performing 5G standalone foundation. This isn't just about speed; it's about delivering superior performance across coverage, capacity, and latency while optimizing energy efficiency and ensuring security and resiliency.

Superior performance

A truly high-performing network delivers more than just speed. It provides the raw power and capacity needed to support any differentiated service. Our solutions, built on co-designed RAN hardware and software, powered by Ericsson silicon, and cloud-native core network ensure CSPs can maximize spectrum investments, give every user the experience they expect, and handle peak demand with unparalleled efficiency

Energy efficiency

Meeting tomorrow's data growth requires a more efficient network. We help CSPs lower the total cost per delivered bit by focusing on energy and operational efficiency. Upgrading to our latest 5G systems can slash energy use by 30% while boosting capacity tenfold, and CSPs can further reduce cost and energy consumption by up to 20% by replacing separate installations of EPC and 5G Core with the dual-mode Ericsson Cloud Core.

Security & resilience

When billions of people and critical services rely on your network, security cannot be an afterthought. We build resilience into every layer, from standardization to operations. Our solutions offer unprecedented defense against sophisticated cyber-attacks and use predictive AI to identify and prevent incidents in the core before they impact service, guaranteeing the integrity of your network.

Capacity and performance alone is not enough to move beyond one-size-fits-all connectivity. The network also needs programmability to deliver the right quality of service to millions of users the moment they need it.

Intent-driven

Move from manually configuring the "how" to specifying the "what." An intent-driven network allows you to set high-level business or operational goals — like "guarantee low-latency for gamers” - and lets the network automatically orchestrate the resources to achieve that outcome. This simplifies management, enhances user experience, and automates complex procedures.

Service-aware

To intelligently adapt, the network must understand. Service-awareness gives the network the ability to identify different traffic types—from video streaming to FWA—and adjust performance to meet their unique requirements. Service-awareness is the enabler for acting on intents and provides the foundation for observability needed to prove that service level agreements are being met.

AI-powered

AI is the engine that makes programmable networks a reality. It empowers the network to understand intents, process vast amounts of data, and make real-time optimization decisions. We deploy AI across the network, decentralized on radio nodes to deliver real-time optimization to centralized rApps in the management system, ensuring algorithms run where they deliver most effectively

How do CSPs serve millions of users with customized services without costs spiraling out of control? The answer is autonomous networks where the approach of intent-driven scales across every network domain.

Enhance customer experience

Autonomous networks monitor service degradation patterns and take corrective actions before they impact your customer experience. In addition, smarter and frequent hyper-automated interactions between customers, business teams and the network ensure that issues get solved faster and services feel more responsive.

Drive resource efficiency based on business goals

Autonomous networks align resource use with overarching business priorities to ensure capacity is directed where it delivers the most impact. This translates into network actions that harness smarter resource- and energy use, creating more efficient operations that drive key business objectives.

Guarantee SLA commitments at scale

Autonomous networks combine intent management with SLA assurance to guarantee the right performance, in the right place, at the right time and at scale. Service-specific intents make this possible, continuously monitoring and triggering actions that keep your SLAs in check.
