With enhanced machine learning and artificial intelligence, Nokia's 5G standalone Core with Nokia Network Services Platform (NSP) allows operators to design and automate network slices in order to drive the development of industrial uses cases like unmanned aerial or road vehicles, remote operations, wireless e-health, digital banking and smart manufacturing.

Nokia 5G standalone Core software Components will be hosted on Keppel Corporation's (Keppel) data center infrastructure powered with Nokia's Airframe servers and spine leaf switches. They will be interconnected through Nokia's high-performance 7750 Service Routers equipped with the Nokia FP4 chipset. Several critical cyber-security solutions like firewall and certification management from Nokia NetGuard suite will fully secure the 5G Core infrastructure.
Manjot Singh Mann, Chief Executive Officer, M1, said: 5G standalone is going to be the real game changer for 5G. With Nokia's 5G standalone Core integrated into our 5G network, we are well positioned to harness the endless possibilities that 5G standalone can bring about. Being at the forefront of 5G standalone use cases development, we are excited to leverage 5G standalone's low-latency, as well as its responsive, secured and high-throughput mobile connectivity to deliver high performance and reliable 5G services for our consumers and enterprises, as well as play a pivotal role in Singapore's Smart Nation digital transformation journey.

It will deliver a greater customer experience, superior serviceability and important operational efficiencies.
