Bringing Field Testing Into the 5G Lab System Verification Life Cycle

whitePaper | September 27, 2022

The modern distributed workplace—including enterprises with thousands of branches and remote workers—requires updated approaches to cloud, networking, and security infrastructure. Cloud migration has opened the door to a huge increase in sophisticated applications, requiring networks that can carry traffic to an increasingly remote workforce. In turn, this creates a unique set of new requirements for security, including special capabilities to handle unpredictable locations of users, applications, and traffic flows.

This document focuses primarily on 3GPP Rel-18 - the inaugural release of 5G-Advanced. Initial work on Rel-18 in 3GPP started in 2022 (just before the finalisation of Rel-17), targeting commercialisation from 2024 onwards. As it evolves, 5G-Advanced will play an important role bridging from 5G to 6G with new features previously not standardised in 3GPP

Data center operators today are tasked with helping achieve corporate sustainability goals, including net-zero emissions commitments. Aging physical infrastructure is a significant obstacle to this effort. In addition to posing downtime risks or added maintenance costs, this infrastructure can negatively impact efficiency and environmental sustainability.

There is no end to the process of network augmentation, and current augmentation process needs to be further enhanced to better serve the future customer needs. To this effect, the networks should be flexible, agile and scalable. In addition, in the 5G era, creation of new vertical markets utilizing the mobile networks will be facilitated. Under these circumstances, operators need to keep evolving their networks by adding new network equipment and/or replacing existing equipment. With open interfaces and open application programming interfaces (APIs), operators can freely choose and adopt best-of-breed solutions among various vendors considering time-to-market and cost in this process by only adding or replacing the required components at the required time without having to swap other equipment that are connected.

The Accenture-Cisco Center of Excellence is an international center integrated with ACIC+ and its catalogue with a hub in Rome in the Accenture Cloud Innovation Center and one in Milan, in the Cisco Cybersecurity Co-Innovation Center as well as a Demo Center at Equinix’s datacenter ML5. The Center will leverage Market leader software-defined solutions for DC, WAN and LAN, Security for both corporate and industrial sites, to establish, based on Equinix Fabric and network edge catalog, a direct and low latency cloud interconnection through its resilient facilities to main cloud providers (MAG). The benefits of having Equinix in this architecture are numerous in terms of lower IT costs thanks to consumption-based billing, faster time-to-market and rapid innovation that supports large scale-up with fluid and real-time service enablement, plus monitoring from a single portal.
