5G Network & Service Strategies

whitePaper | August 2, 2021

Traditional methods of building wide area networks (WANs) have always had limitations, but fell even further behind with the adoption of the cloud and remote work. Software-defined WANs (SD-WANs) have simplified many aspects of WAN management, but are unable to fully break away from the hub-and-spoke model due to security requirements. Modern WAN-as-a-Service offerings address these shortcomings while providing organizations cost savings and improving network performance.

Networks have never been more important to business operations than they are now, and the role they play in organizations of all types is continuing to become more critical and more visible to operations. However, there is a major and widening gap between the capabilities offered by legacy network management tools and the functionality that is actually needed to handle the complexity and growing burden of modern network management.

5G brings edge computing to the forefront, and the edge has become much more complex and critical. For those contemplating new 5G rollouts or making non-standalone (NSA) to standalone (SA) transitions, understanding how to take advantage of this unique solution architecture could reduce costs and improve customer outcomes. This research brief will examine the novel use of programmable fabrics in edge architectures and how this hybrid approach can minimize the deployment footprint, reduce power consumption and cooling needs, and improve network performance.

Demand for mobile services1 has grown rapidly over the last decade and we expect that growth to continue with people expecting to access good quality mobile services wherever they live, work and travel. Innovation continues to drive the development of new mobile devices and applications and we expect increasing use of wireless data by machines and devices in the future. Mobile networks will need to expand capacity and improve quality to meet these future business and consumer needs.

As Intel’s business grows, demand for data center network capacity has increased by more than 25% annually. Additionally, business pressures require new capacity to be brought into production within 24 hours. As far back as 2014, we recognized the potential of software-defined networking (SDN) to help meet these challenges.

Alongside connectivity and power, a third area – the antenna – needs to be equal attention because of the fundamental impact it has on device performance. The antenna is the means by which an IoT device receives and sends signals to the outside world and therefore is a fundamental element of an IoT device. However, antenna decisions are often neglected until the end of the development process, resulting in unnecessary compromises and sub-optimal siting of antennas that could have been avoided with better planning and design.
