Nokia promises better 4G and 5G indoor mobile coverage with Smart Node

Nokia announced the launch of the Nokia Smart Node that promises better 4G and 5G indoor mobile coverage for residential and small-medium enterprises.
Customers can deploy the plug-and-play design in any environment to support consumer applications. It will support 4G now and 5G networks when required – on both non-stand-alone and stand-alone 5G applications through a software upgrade.

Nokia Smart Node will be available from Q4 2021. Nokia Smart Node supports traffic management by reducing core network load and optimizing macro resource allocation. It delivers uncongested high throughput network performance with secure authentication and provides a secure connection and SIM-based authentication to assure the quality required in mobile networks.

Giuseppe Targia, VP Mobile Networks Transport Business Unit at Nokia, said: “These additions to our femtocell range enhance our small cells portfolio which covers all use cases for both indoor and outdoor use. These compact and stylish units make it easy to benefit from superior indoor coverage and capacity particularly for home or small business use.”
