Spotlight on 4G/5G fronthaul networks
How should operators, MNOs and wholesalers alike, converge 4G and 5G fronthaul traffic onto a common transport network? Brian Lavallée explains in part 1 of a 3-part series on xHaul networks.
Spotlight on 5G midhaul networks
In the second part of Brian Lavallée’s series on xHaul networks, he takes a look at midhaul networks, what they are, and how they’ll evolve to support 5G networks.
In this third and final blog in the series, we’ll look at 4G/5G backhaul networks. Whether you’re talking 4G or 5G, Centralized/Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) or Distributed RAN (D-RAN), backhaul transport networks are required to connect the RAN to the 4G Evolved Packet Core (EPC) and 5G Core networks.
