FAQ
What is 4G/5G Converged Core and how does it differ from traditional network architectures?
The 4G/5G Converged Core is a next-generation solution that integrates 5G Core (5GC) architecture into existing 2G, 3G, 4G, and Fixed Networks. Unlike traditional network architectures that operate independently in siloed environments, the converged core unifies different technologies, allowing seamless multi-network access. This approach leverages network functions and microservice components to enhance flexibility, scalability, and service integration.
How does IPLOOK's 4G/5G Converged Core integrate with 2G, 3G, 4G, and Fixed Networks?
IPLOOK’s 4G/5G Converged Core uses advanced network functions and microservices to bridge the gap between different generations of networks. The 5GC technology is seamlessly introduced into the existing infrastructure, enabling smooth integration across legacy networks (2G, 3G, 4G) and fixed networks. This unified core architecture facilitates the management and deployment of multi-network services without needing separate systems for each network type.
What are the main benefits of using a converged core for 4G/5G networks?
The main benefits of a converged core include:
- Improved Efficiency: By consolidating network functions, a converged core reduces complexity and optimizes resource usage.
- Cost Savings: Businesses can manage multiple network technologies under one platform, reducing operational and maintenance costs.
- Scalability: Easily scale the network for new services and technologies without extensive hardware upgrades.
