T-Mobile has announced the arrival of 5G Advanced Network Solutions (ANS), a suite of managed network solutions that has been designed to give enterprises greater performance and flexibility.
As digital transformation continues to drive business and IT needs, T-Mobile’s 5G ANS provides three 5G advanced network options for flexibility: a Public Mobile Network, a Hybrid Mobile Network, and a Private Mobile Network.
Flexible IT models drive efficiency and innovation
A modern approach to infrastructure management
Each offering is fully managed by T-Mobile’s team of experts, the company said in an announcement, while customers will also be able to add compute to each option or use their own compute provider.
The aim is to help organisations gather and process data at superfast speeds, enabling functionality such as smart video analytics, computer vision and inspection, AR and VR experiences, and more.
"With 5G ANS, we started where T-Mobile always starts: by listening to customers. They told us they need solutions that work TODAY but will also scale tomorrow as part of their digital transformation journey," commented T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert.
The 5G ANS suite’s three network options have been designed with differing business needs in mind. The Public Network promises reliability and faster download speeds than legacy networks and is ideal for a variety of uses, such as smart meter apps and tracking optimization.
The Hybrid Mobile Network has been designed to suit those that require faster speeds, lower latency and dedicated reliability. T-Mobile says it's ideal for demanding applications such as immersive VR training.
Going one step further, the Private Mobile Network caters to those that require the highest speeds, reliability, and ultra-low latency – such as industrial automation or fully autonomous robots.
T-Mobile offers dedicated 5G spectrum in low-band, mid-band and mmWave, as well as more sub-6 GHz spectrum holdings on average nationwide than competitors Verizon and AT&T combined. That means there are more options available to maintain connectivity in tricky locations.
Back in 2020, T-Mobile’s public 5G network became the world’s first nationwide standalone (SA) 5G network, delivering up to 40% improvements in latency during testing, the firm said.
“With our 5G network, assets and technical leadership, T-Mobile is uniquely equipped to solve the widest array of enterprise challenges, with flexible options,” Sievert added.
