Bite Group has selected Nokia’s Packet Core appliance-based solution as it seeks to deploy advanced 5G services while simplifying its network architecture in Latvia and Lithuania.
The solution will help Bite to increase the capacity and performance of its core network, allowing the operator to offer its customers ultra-reliable connectivity and enhanced mobile broadband data services, and provide more advanced solutions, like mobile enterprise virtual private network services.
Nokia’s appliance-based solution provides a pre-integrated and modular server-based configuration for increased flexibility to support a wider range of business and operational deployment models, allowing Bite to rapidly target and serve new customers and create new revenue streams. These include expanding Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) offerings with additional capacity for home broadband and enterprise-critical application services in underserved areas, as well as delivering extreme bandwidth and capacity to end users using Nokia’s 5G Standalone solution.
As part of the agreement, Bite will integrate Nokia’s MantaRay Network Management solution for a consolidated and automated network view that optimizes network monitoring and management. Bite already uses Nokia products in its network, including FastMile 5G Receivers.
Mindaugas Rauba, CTO at Bitė Group, said that Nokia’s solutions “will facilitate important changes to our network quality and service delivery and, most importantly, elevate the overall customer experience.”
