The transportation landscape is rapidly evolving into an intelligent, connected digital ecosystem. Key technologies driving this transformation include:

1. Vehicle-to-Network-to-Everything (V2N2X) applications, which enable vehicles and infrastructure to communicate with other entities and services and provide drivers with real-time situational awareness of what’s going on around them.
2. Autonomous vehicles, which use V2N2X, sensors and advanced technologies to assess their surroundings and operate without driver intervention.
3. Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted Cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (C-ITS), which process massive volumes of data from sensors and roadside equipment to help road operators dynamically manage traffic.

To support these advancements, your network must handle increased data demands and counter sophisticated cyber threats. Integrating modern networking innovations is essential for meeting these challenges.

The Nokia mission-critical WAN solution is purpose-built to support the evolution of smart roads and highways. By combining IP/MPLS and WDM optical networking, it delivers the high-performance connectivity you need for advanced applications such as V2N2X, autonomous vehicles and C-ITS. 

This flexible and scalable network foundation incorporates key innovations— including segment routing, operational technology (OT) cloud, AI-optimized network infrastructure and quantum-safe encryption— to meet the growing demands of digital transportation systems. Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical network capabilities give you more flexibility to introduce new bandwidth-hungry applications and services while helping you reduce cost of operations and maintain safety and security.

Your existing networks and applications have key roles to play in your smart road journey. That’s why our IP/MPLS and optical WAN solution ensures full interoperability with legacy systems. It also provides essential network functions such as traffic engineering, IP/MPLS VPN services, quality of service and synchronization, along with a straightforward path for cloud deployment. 

With our WAN, there’s no need to rip and replace. You can take the smooth route to migration and keep getting value from your legacy investments.

Nokia leads in WAN evolution and convergence, offering a comprehensive portfolio that includes IP/MPLS, data center fabric, packet optical, microwave and security. We complement this portfolio with a full suite of professional services, including network audit, design and engineering practices.

We help you transform your WAN for the digital future.
