Wi-Fi — Seamless connectivity for every home
All too often, the brilliant broadband you deliver to the home is undone by patchy Wi-Fi inside the home. With so many devices trying to connect at once, you need to provide unstoppable Wi-Fi that enhances your customers’ broadband experience. When you do, you remove the cost and headache of customer complaints, helpdesk calls, and truck rolls, while the enhanced connectivity leads directly to new revenue opportunities.
Nokia’s advanced mesh Wi-Fi technology—embedded in our fiber optical network terminals (ONTs), 5G fixed wireless access gateways, and Nokia WiFi beacons—guarantees a perfect user experience in every corner of the home, boosting customer satisfaction and your broadband business.

Software Defined Access Networks — Take your broadband network into the cloud
Software-Defined Access Networks (SDAN) bring platform attributes to the broadband network. It helps operators to realize the evolution of hardware-based networks to software-defined platforms by virtualizing much of the functionality. This speeds up innovation cycles in a cloud-native environment, leverages cost-effective software platforms to simplify IT integration, and scales up your ability to program and automate your network.

5G Mobile Transport — Fiber access: The secret of 5G’s success
Increasing the capacity and coverage in 5G technology will require many more radio cells than 3G or 4G LTE, and using a dedicated fiber link to each cell is cost prohibitive. Fiber will be key to supporting 5G mobile transport. Our solution makes it easy to use existing fiber-to-the-home deployments to bring robust fronthaul, midhaul, or backhaul connectivity to your network or offer it to other providers as a service. FTTH is the perfect complement to 5G.
- It makes for faster (and cheaper) 5G deployments than building separate transport networks.
- It’s ready to scale, as FTTH can easily handle 5G densification and increased traffic.
- It supports software-defined network slicing for a dedicated, low-latency mobile transport slice.
