Fixed Network Slicing: The Future of Telecom Industry
In today’s digital age, we rely heavily on the internet and cloud computing for our daily activities. From streaming our favorite TV shows to conducting business transactions, the internet serves as the backbone of our digitalized world. However, the increasing number of users has led to network congestion and slowed internet speeds. The solution to this problem lies in fixed network slicing.
Fixed network slicing is a new technology that enables the division of a single fibre deployment into multiple virtual networks or slices. Each slice is allocated a specific bandwidth and quality of service (QoS), allowing service providers to deliver customized services to their customers based on their specific needs.
With fixed network slicing, service providers can monitor and control traffic on each slice, optimizing network performance and ensuring a better user experience. For instance, gaming and video streaming require high bandwidth, low latency, and high QoS, while emails and browsing require low bandwidth and high reliability.
MyLinking specializes in network traffic visibility, network data visibility, and network packet visibility to capture, replicate and aggregate the inline or out-of-band network data traffic without packet loss and deliver the right packet to the right tools like IDS, APM, NPM, monitoring and analysis system. This technology plays a vital role in the development and optimization of fixed network slicing.
A significant advantage of fixed network slicing is its ability to increase network utilization, allowing service providers to offer new revenue-generating services. For instance, service providers can create customized services or packages for specific customer segments, such as IoT devices, smart homes, and business applications.
Nokia has introduced network slicing technology designed to open a single fibre deployment to customer's premises for multiple users. This technology is being trialed in Lebanon, and it is set to revolutionize the telecommunications industry by boosting network speeds, improving QoS, and optimizing resource utilization.
In conclusion, fixed network slicing is the future of the telecommunications industry. As more people rely on the internet for various activities, fixed network slicing technology provides a scalable, flexible, and reliable solution to growing network congestion. With MyLinking’s expertise in network traffic visibility, network data visibility, and network packet visibility, service providers can monitor, control, and optimize network performance, delivering a better user experience to customers. The future is indeed bright for the telecommunications industry, and fixed network slicing technologies will play a significant role in its growth and development.
