KDDI Welcome to this new choice to support its platform deployment.

· SK telecom Evaluating code Sierra Forest Next generation Intel Xeon processors, and for 5G Intel Infrastructure Power Manager on the core network to accelerate the achievement of sustainable development goals. Testing shows that its next generation 5G The performance of each watt deployed in the core network has achieved a breakthrough improvement.

· Telstra We are cooperating with Intel Sierra Forest Intel Xeon next-generation processors for network evaluation to provide more energy-efficient, high-performance and sustainable 5G Core network.

About Intel Infrastructure Power Manager: This aspect 5G The core network software is available in MWC 2023 It was released on the, proving that operators can use the built-in telemetry function of Intel Xeon processor to reduce throughput, delay, packet loss and other key performance indicators without affecting CPU power waste. The software can be installed on existing and future Xeon processor based network infrastructure.

On achieving net zero emissions: Because energy consumption accounts for 20% to 40% Therefore, the communication service provider is fully optimized 5G The end-to-end energy consumption and overall sustainability of the network are crucial. By integrating Intel Infrastructure Power Manager software into 5G In core network software products, operators can accelerate the realization of sustainable development goals and effectively offset carbon dioxide emissions.

· Casa Systems In its MWC Booth（ two Hall No, 2G11 Booth), with Dell Technology and Telenor Joint demonstration at the 4th generation Intel xeon Intel Infrastructure Power Manager software running on processors can save up to 50% Energy consumption. Currently Casa 5G The core network is now commercially available.

·By using Intel Infrastructure Power Manager software, NEC Helps ensure the function of the user surface（ UPF ）To offset the impact of increased energy consumption on carbon neutrality. This achievement helps to achieve leapfrog improvement in mobile network traffic processing performance, and also helps to reduce energy consumption and cost.

·Nokia Continue to carry out in-depth and extensive cooperation with Intel, and strive to develop leading solutions to build energy-saving and sustainable core network infrastructure. Nokia has integrated Intel Infrastructure Power Manager software for 5G Optimize the core network. By using the Intel Xeon processor HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen 11 Test on server 5G User and control surface functions, Nokia certification CPU Reduced power consumption 40% , and there is no packet loss. Nokia's IPM The test results exceeded the intergenerational energy efficiency improvement brought by Intel Xeon processors. Nokia will two thousand and twenty-four The first commercial product based on this function was provided in 5G Core network stack.

· Orange It is working with ecological partners such as Intel and Nokia to significantly reduce the runtime power consumption of its network functional infrastructure. By leveraging Intel Infrastructure Power Manager on the network and #Sylva Cooperation on projects and other plans, Orange Accelerating energy efficiency and reducing operating costs.

·Samsung and SK Telecommunication cooperation , tested Intel Infrastructure Power Manager software for user side in the laboratory. Current tests show that without affecting throughput, delay or packet loss, CPU Saved 27% Power consumption of 。 SK Telecom estimates that energy saving may exceed one thousand $million, while accelerating the goal of net zero emissions by offsetting thousands of tons of carbon emissions.
