Getting 5G-ready

But what can we do now to prepare for this future? Anticipating what’s next, Cisco is helping mobile service providers to realize the vision of an analytics-driven, dynamic, knowledge-based, 5G-ready network. It’s an elastic and programmable mobile architecture that leverages virtualization and the cloud to capitalize on the Internet of Things and network knowledge. And it allows providers to quickly and easily innovate services like Voice over LTE (VoLTE), Licensed Small Cells, Voice over Wi-Fi (VoWi-Fi), Service Provider Wi-Fi solution (SPWi-Fi) and mobility analytics. That’s all possible using Cisco’s Universal Intelligent Access, combined with an industry-leading packet core, orchestration and additional mobile capabilities anchored into the Evolved Packet Core (EPC). And what’s more, Cisco has already partnered with Ericsson, as well as teaming up with Intel and Verizon, with the aim of creating a next-generation 5G router. It’s vital that mobile network operators start putting the foundations in place now, to make the most of what’s coming.
