p-NET: Principal Lab

The Metaverse Standards Forum (MSF) is happy to announce p-NET Emerging Networks & Vertical Applications (p-NET) as its first Forum Principal Lab

What Is p-NET?

A pioneering Competence Center dedicated to advancing 5G/6G and emerging digital technologies. By fostering innovation and collaboration, we support businesses and vertical industries in leveraging cutting-edge infrastructure and expertise for growth and sustainability.

What p-NET Offers as a Forum Lab

As MSF’s very first Forum Principal Lab, p-NET plays a vital role in accelerating the practical adoption of metaverse standards by providing:

  • Advanced Network Testbed with 5G+ SA Core, offering low latency, high throughput capability, and high density IoT (including XR devices, etc…)
  • Fully Customizable Environment with Slicing and Exposure capabilities providing comprehensive observability of network and applications
  • Indoor and Outdoor testing area with fully configurable 5G NR RAN using 100MHz C-Band enabling testing and verification of any vertical use case (XR, Drones, Autonomy, Robotics). Configuration capability includes MIMO flavors, TDD frame structure, Modulation Scheme and Bandwidth Capacity
  • Actual Energy Consumption measurement capability per Radio component, and additional capability to enable and measure energy saving schemes
  • 5G Cybersecurity Testing in accordance to the 5G Toolbox. Ability to isolate slices for specific users, apply user authentication, and SIM encryption
  • Powerful Edge Cloud with GPU resources for applications demanding high computational capability
  • Digital twin Platform for scanning, processing, and integrating data streams and 3D representations such as Pointclouds, Meshes, 3D Gaussian Splats
  • Team of Experts with long experience in Core, Radio, Applications, Integration and Operations
  • Consulting Capability from feasibility studies to use case design
  • Advanced Training and Technical knowledge Workshops / Webinars
