MELBOURNE, Australia, Feb 23 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cradlepoint, the global leader in cloud-delivered LTE and 5G wireless network solutions, demonstrated application-based traffic steering into two carrier-defined network slices on its fixed wireless and in-vehicle 5G enterprise networking solutions. The demonstration took place at Australian carrier, Optus’ Tech Day.
Using Cradlepoint 5G routers at the WAN edge and leveraging Optus’s 5G standalone live network based on Ericsson’s 5G Core and RAN with network slicing capability enabled, this was the world’s first demonstration of dual network slicing for businesses using a live production network. The demonstration showed how carriers can create different network slices, each with its own performance characteristics and security rules, to uniquely support the different types of applications businesses rely on.
