2024年4月4日 · Learn the differences between Standalone (SA) vs Non-standalone (NSA) 5G from our comparison. We also talk about SA and NSA 5G benefits.

2023年2月23日 · 5G standalone (SA) is an implementation of 5G that solely uses a 5G core network, meaning it has no dependency on 4G LTE network control functions, for signaling and data transfer. At-scale, 5G SA will deliver lower costs for wireless carriers, a better user experience, and support new use cases.

2025年1月14日 · Essentially, 5G NSA is a stopgap measure that enables users to experience some 5G benefits without the need for a complete overhaul of existing systems. Standalone (SA): In contrast, the SA architecture is built from the ground up, using a dedicated 5G core network.

5G standalone (SA) is the gateway to new innovative applications, services and solutions through open APIs, differentiated connectivity and service-based architecture. Take your first steps to 5G standalone today and capture the value of tomorrow’s limitless innovation.

2023年4月27日 · 5G standalone (5G SA) is a key attribute associated with a 5G-native core; here is a quick guide to what this technology is and why it matters.

2020年9月19日 · Standalone 5G or 5G SA is a deployment mode that allows a mobile operator to build an end-to-end 5G network using 5G radio and core network components; non-standalone 5G or 5G NSA is a deployment mode that only has a 5G radio network that works with a 4G LTE core network (EPC – Evolved Packet Core).

2023年6月27日 · 5G NSA networks are hybrid 5G networks that use a 5G radio access network (RAN) and a 4G LTE core network. This combination allows for a more gradual deployment of 5G, allowing operators to begin upgrading their RANs before moving on to upgrade their core networks at a later date.

2025年2月4日 · Dell’Oro Group said 61 5G SA networks have been deployed since 2020 and expects a dozen more to launch in 2025. According to Ericsson , by the end of September 2024, over 60 service providers had deployed or launched public 5G SA networks.

2025年3月17日 · 5G SA network slicing also provides benefits to telecom service providers on the operational side of their mobile networks, providing service flexibility (enabling an exponential increase in portfolio without adding cost) and the ability to deliver tailored services faster, more efficiently, and with strong security characteristics, adds Marcus

Deployments of 5G standalone (SA) are ongoing globally, as service providers recognize the advantages it offers. Find out more about 5G SA in our article.
