As networks evolve to handle unprecedented traffic growth, telecom operators face a pressing need to balance performance, cost efficiency, and sustainability. Traditional infrastructure scaling is no longer viable—operators must now extract more value from every rack, watt, and server while ensuring their 5G Core is flexible enough to evolve toward 5.5G and 6G. Meeting these demands requires both cutting-edge hardware innovation and a software platform optimized for cloud-native telco workloads.
In this webinar, we highlight how Nokia and Intel are transforming 5G Core economics and sustainability. Intel® Xeon® 6 processors with Efficient-cores (E-cores) deliver unmatched compute density, while Intel® Infrastructure Power Manager (IPM) enables real-time, intelligent power management at the core level—cutting runtime energy consumption by up to 60% without sacrificing throughput or reliability. Nokia is the first vendor to commercialize IPM in telco solutions, unlocking new levels of energy efficiency for CSPs. Complementing this, Nokia’s NFVI 5.0 provides a fully integrated, cloud-native virtualization platform that simplifies the deployment of 5G Core workloads. Built for openness and operational agility, NFVI 5.0 combines automation, lifecycle management, and ecosystem alignment, ensuring operators can deploy at scale with confidence while reducing OpEx.
In this webinar you’ll learn about:
- How Intel IPM and Nokia NFVI 5.0 work together to optimize performance, energy efficiency, and cost in 5G Core environments.
- Real-world results of Nokia’s first-to-market IPM integration, enabling CSPs to dynamically tune power usage while maintaining SLAs.
- The role of NFVI 5.0 as a robust, cloud-native infrastructure foundation for deploying Nokia Packet Core functions such as CMG and CMM.
- How these innovations shrink server footprints, extend data center viability, and accelerate time-to-market for new services.
- Strategic pathways for evolving toward 5.5G and 6G with a future-ready, power-efficient 5G Core.
This session is designed for telecom executives seeking to modernize their networks with solutions that drive measurable CapEx and OpEx savings, deliver sustainable operations, and create a competitive advantage in the 5G era.
