We are now starting to see commercial 5G networks going live. Previous generations were focused on consumer and personal communications but now 5G will serve consumers, enterprises and take the internet of things to the next level, where superior connectivity is a prerequisite. Initially, 5G will be a capacity enhancer in metropolitan areas and enhanced mobile broadband and fixed wireless access will be ways for operators to address explosive traffic growth.
From 5G standardization to today’s commercialization, Ericsson has been a key player in making 5G networks a commercial reality.
With Ericsson’s constantly expanding 5G platform, communication service providers can get ready for 5G and grow 4G capacity in their network now. By adding capabilities to our 5G Radio Access, 5G transport and Cloud Core portfolios together with our management and orchestration, digital BSS and network services, we offer an outstanding 5G solution that is both extensive and flexible. This ensures a smooth and cost-effective 4G to 5G migration. And it enables you to offer eMBB and FWA 5G services as well as make the most of the upcoming opportunities with IoT and industrial applications.
