Nokia and Broadcom today announced that they are collaborating on the development of SoC processors which will be integrated into Nokia’s “5G Powered by ReefShark” portfolio.

The collaboration will expand the range of Nokia ReefShark chipsets available for 5G applications and will improve both the system performance and energy footprint of 5G networks.    

The two companies will work to develop SoCs  which use Nokia’s wireless technology and Broadcom’s ASIC expertise.

While collaborating with Broadcom, Nokia continues to further expand its silicon capabilities and improve the penetration of ReefShark solutions in its AirScale radio access portfolio.

 These new chipsets are designed to be deployed in several building blocks of Nokia’s AirScale radio access solution.
