Nokia has launched a 5G-enabled indoor small cell

 C114 News on the afternoon of May 7th, Beijing time (Jiang Junmu) Nokia has launched a 5G-enabled indoor small cell, hoping to benefit from the interest of operators and enterprises in private networks.


This Femtocell now supports LTE and will support 5G Non-Independent Networking (NSA) and 5G Independent Networking (SA) standards through software upgrades, the supplier said. This small cell, named "Smart Node", will be available in the fourth quarter of 2021, mainly for small and medium enterprises and residential customers.


Nokia is promoting the solution to corporate and carrier customers. For corporate customers, it promotes femtocells as part of a mobile network that provides "anti-hacking" security without the need for IT managers to understand and install complex security solutions. Security solutions for smart nodes include digital certificates, IPSec with IKEv2 encryption, firewalls, and tampering alarms.

For network operators, 5G femtocells can provide local drainage and reduce operating costs. Outdoor small cells near companies will require power, backhaul, and real estate, while indoor solutions allow companies to bear these costs. Of course, the downside is that indoor solutions usually only support one corporate customer, while outdoor small cells Can support multiple.
