Swedish vendor Ericsson has been selected by Italian telecom operator Windtre to deploy a container-based, dual-mode 5G core for Standalone on cloud infrastructure, the former said in a release.
Ericsson said that the new deployment will pave the way for the Italian telco to deliver new services to consumers and develop advanced enterprise use cases with innovative business models.
Ericsson and Windtre first unveiled next-generation cloud-native 5G core network technology, architecture, implementation and operations plans in April 2018.
