A Ericsson Case Study
KPN, a Dutch telecommunications provider, sought to address enterprise customers' demands for reduced latency and stricter data security by handling 5G data traffic locally on-premises instead of routing it through distant data centers. To meet this challenge, KPN partnered with vendor Ericsson.
Ericsson implemented its Local Packet Gateway solution, a single server user plane function appliance integrated with a local RAN and a central 5G Core. This allowed all customer data traffic to be routed and processed on-site. The solution significantly improved response time to just 4 milliseconds for virtually real-time data processing and ensured all data remained on the customer's premises for enhanced security.
