ENGAGING FLAGSHIP SHOWCASES AT IMC 2025:
Nokia will captivate attendees with its flagship showcases at IMC 2025, featuring breakthrough solutions that deliver advanced battlefield communication and 6G based surveillance and security.
- Securing the Nation with Advanced Battlefield Communications: Featuring 4G/5G Network-in-a-Box solutions with Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) technology in man-portable and vehicle-mounted form factors for resilient, secure communication in contested environments.
- 6G Sensing Fusion enhancing Security, Surveillance & Safety: Showcasing fusion of 6G RAN sensing with CCTV to create real-time digital twin for asset tracking and situational awareness in airports, warehouses, and industrial sites.
MOBILE NETWORKS (MN) DEMOS:
Nokia will showcase a range of Mobile Networks innovations designed to simplify operations and boost performance. This includes AI-driven digital site twins offering precise 3D models for efficient remote site asset management, and the industry-leading AirScale baseband platform powered by ReefShark SoCs (system-on-chip), delivering AI-ready processing, superior energy efficiency, and exceptional 5G performance.
Nokia will also demonstrate a diversified Microwave portfolio for mobile backhaul and backbone applications, including compact, zero-footprint outdoor solutions. A key differentiator of the solution is efficient Carrier Aggregation feature with L1 Link aggregation that works with both Nokia and third-party traditional microwave products.
The demonstrations will culminate with dual-boost base station technology, significantly improving Massive MIMO uplink and downlink throughput and helping CSPs maximise the potential of their base station assets.
CLOUD AND NETWORK SERVICES (CNS) DEMOS:
Nokia will demonstrate its Cloud and Network Services (CNS) innovations, showcasing autonomous AI-driven service orchestration and assurance using knowledge graphs, digital twins, and Generative AI for fully autonomous network operations and monetization. The demos will feature intent-based automation tools for seamless 5G core delivery and management.
Nokia will also highlight its Data Suite platform that helps CSPs scale AI use cases with high-quality network and subscriber data. A key highlight will be the AI-enabled 5G Service Communication Proxy (SCP), which collects data and leverages AI and machine learning to automate and optimize network operations, improving efficiency and performance.
NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE (NI) DEMOS:
Nokia will showcase Network Infrastructure demos featuring the reliable and compact Nokia SAR (service aggregation router), designed for mission-critical sectors such as power, railways, and defense. Demonstrations include seamless connectivity via fiber-to-the-x (FTTx), fixed wireless access (FWA), and mesh solutions for ultra-fast broadband. Fiber sensing demo will showcase how advanced fiber sensing technologies can help operators detect disturbances to the fiber optic cable that may produce outages and take proactive actions.
Nokia will also present Sync as a Service for precise 5G timing synchronization, along with cost-efficient Optical Thin Transponders supporting 400G to 800G coherent transport, complemented by high-speed Optical Pluggable modules for IP-over-DWDM and metro-edge networking.
AI DEMO ZONE
Nokia will showcase its AI-powered demo zone featuring advanced AI innovations in radio access and network automation. The AI for RAN demo highlights AirScale base stations equipped with ReefShark SoCs that use AI acceleration to optimize network performance by adapting to changing radio conditions. MantaRay AutoPilot, a cloud-native AI platform, enables zero-touch network optimization by acting both as an autonomous agent and an intelligent assistant, proactively detecting issues and delivering actionable insights.
The Proactive Security demo will feature Nokia’s NetGuard Cybersecurity Dome, where an integrated Hunt Assistant leverages Generative AI to rapidly identify and respond to threats. Additionally, Nokia will demonstrate AI-driven automation in data center and network management using its NSP platform, improving programming, troubleshooting, and operational efficiency.
ADDITIONAL HIGHLIGHTS:
NOKIA BELL LABS CENTENNIAL: A CENTURY OF INNOVATION
