A world-class recipe for 5G monetization success
Far EasTone and Ericsson marked a breakthrough in 5G network slicing with the world’s first 5G end-to-end (E2E) multiple network slicing on multiple commercial Android devices. The trial allowed each app to have its own communication channel with promised speed, latency and reliability – all on one device and one network. Discover their key learnings from the project and how it’s unlocking the significant potential of 5G.
Pushing the boundaries of 5G
Two completely different user profiles in one mobile device? With Ericsson Dynamic Network Slicing it can be managed all the way to the network capabilities of RAN Slicing. Download full case study to see how Far EasTone is doing it.
Highlights
In November 2021, Far EasTone Telecommunications (FET) and Ericsson demonstrated the first 5G E2E multiple network slicing on multiple commercial Android devices, based on the Ericsson-powered 5G standalone (SA) system. This trial showcased part of the functionality of the recently announced Ericsson Dynamic Network Slice Selection solution, marking a breakthrough in network slicing capabilities on a 5G SA network and paving the way for further ecosystem development in this important area.
E2E network slicing is disruptive and will lead to a paradigm shift. For FET it’s opening up new enterprise and consumer opportunities, including monetizing the consumer segment beyond traditional mobile broadband. It will enable future smartphones to support different personal profiles and cost for data traffic to apps to be handled in new more advanced ways – leading to new innovative ways to cooperate with ecosystem partners for a forward-looking technology.
