5G Core (5GC) Network
3 DAYS
INSTRUCTOR LED WORKSHOP
“OUR COURSES CAN BE SPECIALLY TAILORED TO ADDRESS YOUR REQUIREMENT – TELECONTRAN”
COURSE OBJECTIVES
The design specification of 5G is started from 3GPP Rel. 15; with different focus on air interface and core network. 5GCore is completely different architecture that intends to be a single core that supports different types of access network. The 5G networking system has been established to support different type of services (eMBB, URLLC and MTC) using new networking techniques such as Network Function Virtualization and Software Defined Networking. 5G starts supporting network slices, edge computing and network automation.
Telecontran’s 3-day Workshop on 5G Core (5GC) Network is designed to provide more depth in 5GCore Network, technology used to build the 5GCore Network (5GC) and future evolution of the 5GCore. This workshop also covers Network Functions of 5G Core Network, Network Slicing as well as Packet Forwarding Control Protocol (PFCP), Control and User Plane Separation (CUPS).
After successful completion of this 3-day workshop participants will be able to
- Understand a concise and accessible explanation of the underlying technology and standards for 5G technology and the key principles behind the evolving 5G core network.
- Learn the basic architecture of 5G core network as well as the functional split in the architecture.
- Understand 5G Network Functions (NF) that are implemented in 5GC and their roles.
- Illustrate the purpose behind Service-Based Architecture (SBA) and 5G Network Slicing
- Sketch the architecture for MEC and the traffic flow for MEC applications
- Learn Software based network data plane development for 5GCore network

OUR HAPPY CLIENTS
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT TELECONTRAN !!
This course has given me more insight on 5G network as a whole, from introduction to Smart Cities. The presentation was well outlined and learning objectives were successfully completed.
It was a fantastic workshop done by the instructor where I learnt a lot about 5G Technology.
Excellent workshop that made me engaged during these days to learn about 5G Technology, especially the transport layer and end user experience.
Excellent introductory course presented by an excellent instructor who was so engaging and supportive that I did not hesitate to ask questions; His answers and presentation was great and understandable.
The trainer and the hands-on sessions were fantastic and this workshop helped me to learn about PowerBI and Cyber Security.
