Building tomorrow’s wireless transport networks with Nokia Wavence
The global demand for high-capacity, resilient and rapidly deployable transport solutions is more important than ever, driven by the critical needs of 5G densification, rural broadband initiatives, enterprise digitalization and mission-critical infrastructure. These applications require transport technologies that deliver exceptional performance, scalability and reliability.
Modern microwave systems are now indispensable, seamlessly supporting ultra-dense urban environments, remote industrial operations and secure public-sector networks with carrier-grade dependability. As the industry advances towards 6G, microwave technology will be pivotal in enabling ultra-low latency, enhanced energy efficiency and ubiquitous connectivity.
Nokia’s commitment to best-in-class microwave transport
Nokia is dedicated to empowering our customers to build robust microwave networks and unlock long-term business potential. Our Wavence portfolio provides the performance and agility essential for success across 5G deployments, enterprise transformation and critical infrastructure modernization. With unparalleled capacity and deployment flexibility, Nokia Wavence is more than a mere microwave solution; it serves as a blueprint for the future of high-performance wireless transport.
I, personally, am proud of our unwavering commitment to investing in the Wavence portfolio and roadmap ensures we continue to deliver cutting-edge wireless transport solutions and services to both existing and new customers. This commitment is reflected in the products we are showcasing this year at Mobile World Congress.
Unstoppable innovation with Nokia Wavence
Wavence innovation is continuous, with a portfolio roadmap that encompasses short-haul, long-haul and E-Band solutions designed to meet the demands of today's advanced 5G networks and tomorrow's 6G world. We actively explore and coordinate new spectrum options with industry bodies to secure future connectivity needs. Our continuously growing investment in R&D and technology enables us to stay ahead in the game, supporting next-generation networks and novel use cases connected by microwave. We are already demonstrating in the field that 170 GHz full-duplex microwave links double spectral efficiency, and we recently unveiled state-of-the-art technology enabling ultra-high power in E-Band at our WAVExperts user group event.
Furthermore, by leveraging AI, our customers can optimize troubleshooting and significantly enhance Wavence network efficiency, leading to a substantial reduction in operational costs.
Join us at Mobile World Congress 2026
As we continue this journey together, I warmly invite you to connect with us at Mobile World Congress 2026 (Hall 3 – Stand #3B20). The Nokia team, including myself and microwave experts from my team, will be on-site and available for strategic discussions, technical deep dives and guided demo tours featuring the latest innovations in the Wavence portfolio. This includes our newest radio solutions and technology evolution designed to support future wireless transport needs. This is an excellent opportunity to explore how Nokia can continue to support your microwave transport network evolution beyond 5G and mobile backhauling.
Thank you for your trust and partnership. I look forward to working with you throughout the upcoming year and welcoming you to the Nokia stand at MWC 2026.
