The Nokia Bell Labs Future X Architecture for defense
5G technologies will provide unprecedented automation for improved safety, productivity and efficiency across all levels of government, from warehouses to manufacturing and forward operating bases. With its very high bandwidth, low latency and reliability, 5G is ideal for remote tele-operation of machines, drones and robots, thereby keeping skilled operators out of harm’s way. A hyperscale optical backbone will connect 5G base stations to edge and core clouds that will provide flexible compute resources wherever they are most needed to support AI and machine learning analytics for advanced automation. Nokia calls this the Future X Network for defense: a secure, end-to-end architecture that will provide the reliability and scale that governments need.
