Details that matter

Engineered for professionals who demand the best in performance, security, and design.

Get smart about signaling

Our CSD product helps you address the challenges of signaling plane traffic growth

Simplify your control topology

Reduce the 4G or 5G core’s complexity by deploying signaling control. You get more flexibility to define control plane behavior and support advanced mediation capabilities.

Manage control plane behavior

Boost operations efficiency, scalability, and performance by defining behavior in the control plane. CSD lets you create routing policies that enable and simplify server selection, load balancing, and session management.

Ensure interoperability in the control plane

Add 4G LTE network elements and 5G network functions without worrying about compatibility issues. With our CSD you can leverage mediation and data manipulation capabilities to ensure interoperability across different element versions and vendor implementations.

Secure the roaming infrastructure

Control and protect the exchange of signaling information across the roaming infrastructure with our 4G LTE Diameter edge agent (DEA) and our 5G Security Edge Protection Proxy (SEPP)

Optimize your signaling architecture

An optimal signaling architecture, such as represented by Nokia Model D, prioritizes flexibility, high performance, and a cloud-native design. This approach leverages a capable Service Communication Proxy (SCP) to ensure maximum network and service adaptability, while delivering low latency and high throughput across diverse service scenarios, even with complex protocol adaptations.

Challenges

What's straining today's signaling control plane

Performance, automation and new business drive 5G signaling

In 5G networks, signaling changes from Diameter to 5G’s HTTP/2 and JSON. The challenges in deploying your 5G core include:

  • Fully utilizing the 5G core’s Service Based Architecture (SBA), including dynamic configurations, massive scaling, and resilience.
  • Ensuring interoperability across the 5G core, both within and between networks.
  • Building in security from the start for internal and external threats.

Service Communication Proxy (SCP)

SCP use cases

The SCP is the 5G core network function that allows service-based architecture to deliver its maximal benefit. It acts like a “switch” between network functions, simplifying interconnection between NFs.

It provides load balancing, protocol adaptation and provides a single location to probe and observe signaling communication in the core.

Why choose Nokia for your cloud signaling needs?

Cloud-native design

CSD is designed from the start for cloud-native requirements, which avoids legacy software’s challenges when moving to cloud.

Agile Rules Technology

CSD is based on our Agile Rules Technology (ART). Backed by more than 150 patents, ART provides ease of use, flexibility, high performance, scalability, and maintainability.

Extensive signaling experience

CSD draws on our deep knowledge of signaling. We develop the signaling capabilities of our packet core, IMS, and policy and charging control solutions in house. Our products are designed to work successfully in any multivendor environment.
