5G SA Lab
5G SA Lab it’s a complete 5G network in a desktop package.
It includes 5GC core network, 5G gNodeB and 2 5G SA compatible smartphones.
Can be used for:
- testing 5G SA compatibility devices
- Security testing for 5G either network or devices
- MVNO – MNO 5G roaming scenarios
- MNO – MNO 5G roaming scenarios
- Learning environment for 5G SA network
Features
- Setup/edit mobile network and component preferences via MMI management interface
- Minimal monitoring of each network component, additional YateBTS monitoring possible
- Wireshark capture of communication between components including decrypted IMS traffic
- JSON API integration with any SIM management and CRM systems
- JSON and REST API for sending SMS
- Can use both 5G CAPIF, SIGTRAN/SS7 and Diameter for signaling
- Supports both IPv4 and IPv6 and Non-IP
- Works both stand alone and with external components
