What is packet core?

The Nokia packet core provides key components needed for a webscale-class evolved packet core (EPC) and 5G core system (5GC). With its virtualized, cloud-native disaggregated and state-efficient design, it is well suited for multi-cloud environments. It is also infrastructure agnostic and independent of the underlying cloud infrastructure used for orchestration, lifecycle management (LCM) and infrastructure resource management.

Why Telcos should trust Nokia's Packet Core?

Capture new revenue opportunities by delivering a diverse range of exciting services. This requires a feature-rich, high-performing, capable and reliable packet core that can be deployed without limitations and evolved with confidence on any cloud and using any access technology (2G/3G/4G/5G).

Features

Core capabilities of Nokia Cloud Packet Core

01

Deploy with flexibility, ensure performance

Find out how Nokia’s packet core flexibility meets your needs wherever you are on your cloud journey.

Minimized latency

A compact, high performance and distributed packet core for user plane slice selection and local traffic offload helps to meet the needs of ultra-reliable low latency use cases.

Increased flexibility

Packet core network functions can be introduced or expanded rapidly with a simple software upgrade or a pre-integrated appliance.

Resource efficiency

The unified control plane can manage multiple wireless and wireline user plane functions located anywhere in the network.

02

Maximize throughput, minimize latency

Find out how Nokia’s packet core helps you to achieve industry-leading performance from integrated IP services and a high-performance IP forwarding engine.

Cost-effective network

3.5x greater throughput compared to dedicated external network elements.

Improved customer experience

The high performance packet core gateway minimizes latency for the delivery of uRLLC use cases.

Lower OPEX

Fewer network functions need to be processed and maintained.

03

Observe your packet core performance

Find out how Nokia packet core's observation capability leads you to effective operations and monetization.

Performance analysis

Analysis of individual device sessions and behavior is enabled by packet core network function per call measurement data (PCMD) for detailed insights to help maintain service performance.

Visibility at all levels

Monitoring overall packet core network with per-interface and per-flow granularity enables you to get ahead of issues.

Openness

Open cloud native computing foundation (CNCF) components can be used for easy logging, tracing and monitoring.

How CPC Delivers

Resilience, edge performance, intelligence and secure access built into Nokia Cloud Packet Core

Session Restoration Service (SRS): strengthening resiliency and optimizing resources

SRS also reduces unnecessary signaling between core functions. By only updating what has changed in the user context and streamlining acknowledgements, it cuts backup‑related signaling by about half and overall control‑plane signaling by roughly 20%. That translates into lower overhead, faster recovery, and more predictable performance during large outages or mass reattachments.

Packet Core Appliances for achieving high performance at the edge

Nokia’s Packet Core Appliances give telecommunication providers a practical path to meet edge performance and capacity demands by delivering pre-packaged, production-ready software stacks for high-performance servers that enable network disaggregation, accelerate deployment, and simplify operations—helping reduce latency while improving reliability.

AI/ML in 5G Cloud Packet Core: driving performance and resilience

Nokia’s Cloud Mobility Manager (CMM), integrated with the Machine Learning Intelligence Service (MLIS), delivers a cloud‑native, real‑time learning Packet Core that leverages microservices, event streaming, and deep observability to power forecasting, anomaly detection, automated root‑cause analysis, mitigation, and predictive reachability.

Non 3GPP interworking function (N3IWF) - Untrusted access security frameworks

The Non‑3GPP Interworking Function (N3IWF) is the 5G/6G gateway for untrusted access, such as Wi‑Fi and residential broadband, implemented as an NG‑RAN element that connects directly to the 5G Core.
