Nokia's new packet-optical switches for 5G Cloud RAN launched to address network complexities
New Delhi, Oct. 23 -- This week, Nokia has introduced the 1830 Time-sensitive Packet Switch (TPS) family of time-sensitive networking (TSN) switches, which according to the company can reduce the cost and complexity of Cloud RAN deployments by enabling packet-based transport for mobile fronthaul.
Nokia says that the new family of switches transparently supports a mix of existing and new radio interface protocols, unifying mobile transport for 4G and 5G networks.
The launch comes as 5G is set to introduce support for applications that demand ultra-low latency - the time it takes for a signal to make a round-trip on the network. By distributing applications to multi-access edge computing (MEC) locations at the periphery of the network - c...
