NEC cuts mobile network build time by 60 percent

Japanese technology company, NEC, has introduced a solution aimed at making mobile network deployment faster and more efficient. The company states that this technology can cut the time needed to install network infrastructure by around 60 percent compared to traditional methods.

The process enhances the way mobile networks are planned, designed, and built, focusing on base stations and virtualised infrastructure.

By incorporating cloud-native technologies, the platform aims to improve efficiency, quality, and productivity in network deployment. The company developed the innovation based on its experience in building virtualisation platforms.

Key features:

• Optimised deployment process – The framework analyses and refines each stage of network installation, helping telecom providers streamline site design, construction, and maintenance.
• Automation tools – Cloud-based technologies reduce manual work, allowing for quicker and more efficient infrastructure development.
• Real-time performance tracking – Operators can monitor base station performance instantly, enabling faster adjustments to improve communication quality and operational efficiency.

Built on a microservices architecture, the solution integrates seamlessly with open, multi-vendor equipment. This design ensures flexibility and adaptability across different telecom environments.

NEC also provides the “Network and Cloud-Native Orchestrator,” a platform that helps manage virtualised network infrastructure from deployment to maintenance. This allows telecom carriers to scale their networks efficiently while maintaining high performance.

Through its “NEC BluStellar” initiative, the company aims to modernise network management by leveraging advanced technologies. By improving automation and streamlining processes, NEC hopes to support telecom operators in expanding 5G networks more effectively while maintaining service reliability.
