As 5G moves from the lab to the field, field engineers, technicians and installers grapple with the many challenges of ensuring successful deployment. Validating 5G in the lab is one thing, but scaling it to the field requires robust and efficient 5G test and verification solutions. VIAVI is pleased to offer you this comprehensive 5G Deployment Handbook where you'll find insights to simplify deployment complexities and learn about easy-to-use fiber, x-haul and RF solutions.

Increasingly, broadband service providers (BSPs) are upgrading to next-generation XGS-PON fiber networks. Why? These advanced networks are necessary to support the new era we live in—one of high-bandwidth services and rich subscriber experiences backed by popular cloud-based applications and services. Next-generation XGS-PON fiber networks can deliver those high-speed 10G offerings and enable broadband businesses to provide popular subscriber services to both homes and businesses. In this world of increased demand for more bandwidth, BSPs also need networks that enable service provisioning in minutes—not days or hours. Networks must be seamlessly optimized and scaled to meet changing subscriber demands.

One of the overarching goals of the ETSI Industry Specification Group (ISG) F5G on Fifth Generation Fixed Network is to establish a regular rhythm of evolution for the fixed telecommunications network. This technology enhancement corresponds to the series of generations defined for the wireless network. So far, F5G has published technical specifications on use cases, generations definition of fibre networks, architecture, and more. As it continues, these documents will be enhanced and revised to describe the fifth generation of fixed networks more fully. Therefore, we need to consider the evolution of F5G. This White Paper describes the drivers, dimensions, and technologies of the F5G advanced and beyond.

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

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.

In a growing connected economy, new demands require modern organizations to rethink how they effectively manage their data center environment. Beyond new requirements around the cloud, architectures around edge computing are also placing new strains on business and technology leaders. In a world of constant connectivity performance, efficiency, uptime, and infrastructure visibility take center stage as leaders make decisions around their digital infrastructure.
