We are now introducing the industry’s first 5G NR-capable radio, called Ericsson AIR 6468. It features 64 transmit and 64 receive antennas enabling it to support our 5G plug-ins for both Massive MIMO and Multi-User MIMO. The high-performance beamforming, required for Massive MIMO, is enabled through the use of a split Cloud RAN architecture, which brings the required intelligence and scalability to this new radio. And, the AIR 6268 is designed for compatibility with the 5G NR standard while also supporting 4G/LTE.

Questions for VoIP Installers
What Is a VOIP Telephone?
A VoIP telephone is a VoIP (Voice over IP) phone that uses an internet connection to place and receive calls, rather than using a traditional telephone line. VoIP phones are becoming increasingly popular, as they offer a number of advantages over traditional landline phones. These phones can be used with any broadband internet connection, making them very versatile. VoIP phones also offer a number of features that are not available with traditional landline phones. For instance, caller ID, call waiting, voicemail, and three-way calling. VoIP phones are also generally less expensive than traditional landline phones. Our VOIP Installers here at NM Cabling are here to guide you through the design, installation and after care of your system.
Benefits of switching to a cloud based VoIP phone system.teliconetworks
Moving your phone system to the cloud provides your business with added flexibility and cost savings. A modern communication platform increases collaboration between your employees, partners and customers. This presentation will highlight some of the key benefits in switching from legacy phone technology.

13. VoWiFi Business Drivers
• New Services - Compete against the main OTT VoIP and video
competitor (Skype) – enhanced user experience / loyalty /
Incremental revenue
• Offer Indonesian or anyone outside Indonesia a service to call back
to Indonesia without incurring Roaming Charge
Offer Indonesian subscribers a service to receive calls on the
mobile number without incurring Roaming Charge
Coverage & Network Offload - Better user experience and
macro network offload (70% of mobile usage is inside
office/home) – lower churn and cost
• Easy Billing - A challenge in many Asian countries with low use
of online payments and credit cards - faster revenue realization
• Brand Dilution - Avoid being perceived as a “dumb pipe”
provider - attach users to innovative services and keep the
brand fresh
• Network Transformation - Prepare the organization to more
easily evolve to IMS based HSPA+, VoLTE and RCS services – 4G
network readiness

14. Consumer Use Cases for VoWiFi
‘Roaming CS Avoidance’
Improved Service Coverage
‘Roam Like Home’
Roaming for Non-Subscribers When roaming, use WiFi for calls
WiFi App detects handset is roaming
Calls are always placed using WiFi
Usage is ‘home rated’ based on home plan Consumer benefits from local rates. Home operator benefits because it gains revenues from calls which otherwise would have been made on a competitors service or not made at all and avoidance of bill shock.
Use roaming 3G/4G data plan for VoIP calls
Roaming Data may be lower cost than Roaming Data
Total data consumption of a VoIP call is low
Its lower cost to make a VoIP call over 3G than CS
When roaming app uses 3G/4G data network as VoIP call. Consumers benefit by avoiding costly Circuit Switched calls
Switch to WiFi in poor 2G/3G coverage
Users are surrounded by multiple network bearers
WiFi App selects WiFi bearer when its available and best choice.
Usage is still ‘rated’ based on users plan. Consumer benefits from extended coverage and quality. Operator benefits from revenues from calls which otherwise would have not been made and avoidance of bill shock.
Visiting users buy package of local ‘voip’ minutes
Users download ‘app’ when arriving in new network
Calls are routed as VoWiFi or VoIPo3G/4G
Rated using a local pre-paid plan rather than roaming Consumer benefits from local rates. Roaming operator benefits from increasing local termination revenues which might have otherwise been avoided. Home Operator benefits from lack of bill shock.,

15. What Operators are Saying about VoLTE and
VoWiFi
Clear conversations and
reduced background
noise so you feel like
you’re right next to each
other. Make and receive
high-definition voice
calls and enjoy:
• Crisp call quality
• Less background noise
• Simultaneous voice
and data at 4G LTE
speeds
May 23, 2014
VoLTE is the next
major advancement in
LTE; customer benefits
include faster call
setup times (almost
twice as fast) and HD
Voice.
Launching VoLTE is
our first step toward a
host of rich
communication
services and additional
innovations around Wi-
Fi calling.
May 22, 2014
We believe the
combination of this
robust network along
with the new features
is going to create a
new, meaningful
experience for our
customers for their
calling needs.
HD Voice and video
calling would be the
two main services
initially offered through
VoLTE technology.
May 20, 2014
EE has announced
plans to launch VoLTE,
with a VoWiFi service…
both promise
improvements in
quality-of-service over
traditional circuitswitched
calls.
Both services are
enabled via an IMS
capability in EE’s
network.
