Mavenir, Deutsche Telekom show progress in 5G network slicing

Mavenir said that one of the projects is 5G Live Video Production Service, which is aimed at providing stable broadcasting of live events using 5G SA and network slicing technologies

Network software provider Mavenir, together with Deutsche Telekom, announced advancements across two projects both focused on progressing monetization opportunities enabled by 5G Standalone (SA) network slicing technologies.

The partners noted that one of the projects is a 5G live video production service, which is aimed at providing stable broadcasting of live events using 5G SA and network slicing technologies. This new service, now commercially available from Deutsche Telekom, allows professional video or media production companies to transmit live HD video streams reliably over the 5G network, even without special equipment.

The two partners also carried out a demonstration of a multi-domain orchestration proof-of-concept (PoC) with open APIs for 5G dynamic network slicing services on-demand.

The collaborative PoC showed how businesses can submit a service request through Deutsche Telekom’s customer interface, initiating the setup of a protected, tailored 5G network slice that assures superior Quality of Service (QoS) tailored to a customer’s specific connectivity needs, the partners said. The offering includes the the activation of a dedicated end-to-end network slice with a custom Service Level Agreement (SLA).

Ashok Khuntia, president of core networks at Mavenir, said: “Mavenir is committed to support Deutsche Telekom’s 5G Standalone business objectives through the enablement of dynamic network slicing. Mavenir’s cloud-native 5G Core exposes Open APIs allowing Deutsche Telekom’s enterprise customers to seamlessly request deployment and configuration of dedicated 5G Core user and control plane network functions, as well as to provision corresponding subscribers’ profiles through an orchestration layer.”
