The networks of telecommunications providers are undergoing rapid change. The buzzword is "network disaggregation". The technological advantages of cloudification, virtualization and automation are increasingly being exploited. Specialized appliance solutions, which in the past performed their work as "black boxes", are increasingly being replaced by open source software and technical terms such as "Access 4.0" or "Open RAN" express this.
The path taken in both fixed and mobile networks is driving "Fixed Mobile Convergence". The intelligence of the platforms is shifting to the software layer. The operation of standardized compute and virtualization solutions, as well as the use of software-defined networking solutions and network functions virtualization, not only reduces the number of platforms and operating costs, it also creates high availability, agility and flexibility.
A software-defined telco platform set up in this way makes it possible to provide new or modified services very quickly. The focus of work shifts towards service development. The transformation of OSS and BSS goes hand in hand with a significant change in partner landscapes. Technologies such as machine learning and big data are playing an increasingly important role.
This course describes the current technologies and designs for access and core networks as well as for 5G networks. The implementation of a service-based architecture (SBA) is examined as well as the integration of fixed access.

Classroom training
- Do you prefer the classic training method? A course in one of our Training Centers, with a competent trainer and the direct exchange between all course participants? Then you should book one of our classroom training dates!
-
Hybrid training
- Hybrid training means that online participants can additionally attend a classroom course. The dynamics of a real seminar are maintained, and the online participants are able to benefit from that. Online participants of a hybrid course use a collaboration platform, such as WebEx Training Center or Saba Meeting. To do this, a PC with browser and Internet access is required, as well as a headset and ideally a Web cam. In the seminar room, we use specially developed and customized audio- and video-technologies. This makes sure that the communication between all persons involved works in a convenient and fault-free way.
