Radio access network

Nokia AirScale radio access provides efficient and scalable mobile network coverage and capacity for 4G and 5G with common single hardware, software, management and services. Powered by the Nokia unique ReefShark System on Chip (SoC) technology, it provides the performance and capacity, while ensuring compact form factors to address the range of power utility use cases.

Backhaul network

An integrated mix of IP/MPLS and microwave radio and optical transport embedded with cyber security and high availability mechanisms assure the upmost reliability for mission-critical traffic with an optimized solution.  End-to-end network orchestration, automation and optimization, enhance flexibility while simplifying operations. 

Enterprise core

Our Enterprise packet core is optimized for mission-critical networks. This 4G/5G core includes a highly optimized footprint and operational requirements, along with streamlined deployment and support. Start today with 4.9G/LTE core that supports a clear path to 5G.

Operations and Management

Our private wireless solution includes a simple interface that makes it easy to operate and manage your end-to-end system. The interface also provides access to advanced configuration settings that let you fine-tune the performance of your network to meet the requirements of your applications.

Ruggedized user equipment

Unlock the power of private 4G/5G networks with ruggedized Nokia Industrial user equipment that includes compact handhelds, workpads, field routers, dongles, hotspots, a 5G video camera and accessories. Integrated device management supports seamless onboarding and operation.

Applications

You can expand the capabilities with Nokia or third-party applications. For example, you can reduce your reliance on LMR/PMR networks by using our Group Communications solutions to support critical PTT or PTV services on a 4.9G/LTE network. Additionally, Nokia’s solution supports a wide variety of industrial applications with the integration of Nokia’s MX Industrial Edge (MXIE) on premise edge cloud platform, Nokia Industrial Application Catalog contains click-to-deploy industrial applications to accelerate OT digitalization.
