- Using Cradlepoint 5G routers at the WAN edge and leveraging Optus’ 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 5G slicing capability demonstrated by Optus, Ericsson and Cradlepoint will enable customers to prioritize connectivity to different things on the same network.
- Ericsson’s dual-mode 5G Core and Ericsson RAN enabled the two end-to-end slices for both use cases from the network side.
- Nathan McGregor, senior vice president, Cradlepoint, said, “The ever-evolving capabilities of 5G connectivity are such an exciting part of network infrastructure today.
