Empowering Lives Through Connectivity
5G, Open Technologies and Beyond

5G technology is poised to change the world, transforming wireless networks into dynamic, life-changing pathways to unprecedented levels of connectivity and capability.

With massive bandwidth and ultra-high throughput speeds – coupled with ultra-low latency capable of supporting mission-critical enterprise use cases – the propagation of 5G networks will deliver on the long-promised connected society that will change our everyday lives and revolutionize commerce, public safety, manufacturing, and more.

NEC believes that a commitment to openness and the benefits of Open RAN are the keys to driving global 5G connectivity. Through collaboration, partnership and new competition, Open RAN will help connect the world in ways that help to close the digital divide and provide automation and AI-driven capabilities to industries that impact our everyday lives.

To enable this dramatic advancement, NEC has developed NEC Open Networks, a comprehensive product and services suite that delivers on the real promise and benefits of 5G through a truly open approach throughout the entire network ecosystem including RAN, xHaul Transport, Core, OSS/BSS and System Integration.

5G is not simply one more G than 4G. It’s a radical change. A leap into the future where our world is better connected, making lives safer, healthier, smarter, and more productive. The impact of 5G will be felt not only by consumers using mobile phones. The real impact will change the way manufacturers design their plants, the way autonomous vehicles travel more safely, and the way healthcare organizations deliver more advanced and safer treatments around the world.

And this is only the beginning.
