What is 5G Transport?

5G transport connects (by fiber or microwave connections) all nodes in the Radio access network (RAN) with the Core and becomes the backbone of the 5G mobile network. The transport network is often divided into fronthaul and backhaul: the fronthaul connects the radio unit to the baseband and the backhaul ties the basebands to the core to fulfill use case and capacity demands. Transport networks need to be capable of handling all the Gs; 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G in a cost- and energy-efficient manner while fulfilling the requirements of 5G and its services. Ericsson has developed a complete mobile transport portfolio designed with precision to deliver ubiquitous 5G coverage wherever it is needed. Scalable, flexible and cost-efficient transport solutions from Ericsson deliver superior RAN performance to connect 5G services everywhere.

The art of growing your network opportunities

Empowering high-performing programmable networks

Optical fronthaul

Efficiently increase line capacity and minimize the fibers required in a reliable and flexible way. DWDM delivers increasing speeds and new models of RAN connectivity in a world where telecommunication capacity is increasing, and fiber availability is limited.

Purpose-built routers for high performing networks

The evolution of radios, interfaces, and deployment architectures, drive the need for increased capacity and connectivity in 5G transport networks. Explore our Router 6000 solutions designed to keep your network at the forefront of tomorrow’s wireless landscape.

Boost capacity in microwave networks

As the capacity demands increase with 5G expanding in dense urban, suburban, and rural areas, higher backhaul capacities are needed. Capacity can be increased in various ways, including software, hardware or spectrum enhancements.

Long haul microwave

How can you plan networks that provide high capacity in rural or remote areas where no optical fiber is available at a reasonable cost? Long haul microwave is the answer.
