# 4G LTE

## DEPLOYMENT OPTIONS

Parallel Wireless’s solution is ideally suited for:

- Greenfield 4G Deployment: SPs looking to provide new 4G service in rural or urban areas.
- [Densification](/content/solution-overviews/4g-densification/index.html): SPs looking to densify their 4G networks to support increasing user count.
- Indoor 4G coverage based on CAP and OpenRAN controller with local or [distributed EPC](/content/products/cloud-native-architecture/index.html).

As it delivers the following benefits:

- **Cloud-native architecture across all components:**
  - OpenRAN software abstracts Core and RAN and brings 5G-like benefits to 4G (with [low latency](/content/products/cloud-native-architecture/index.html) and [network slicing](/content/products/network-slicing/index.html)).
  - Data traffic local breakout through utilization of CUPS can deliver low latency into 4G networks today.
- **Easy to deploy, manage, and scale:**
  - The software platform automates network optimization to reduce deployment cost.
  - Self-configuration makes radios plug-and-play.
  - Self-optimization reduces the need for drive testing and results in cost reduction.
  - Radio is software-defined to upgrade user count and technologies, so sites can be software upgradable to higher capacity with COTS BBU or 5G when needed.
  - Orchestration enables optimal network performance, which results in superior end-user QoE with seamless mobility, preventing subscriber churn.
- **Lowest TCO:**
  - [Automation](/content/products/network-orchestrator/index.html) reduces the need to travel on-site or use professional services.
  - Hands-free optimization of PW SON saves on on-going maintenance.
- **Future-proof and easy migration to 5G:**
  - Software platform enables [5G-native](/content/technologies/5g/index.html) architecture which is upgradable to any 3GPP release in the future and can enable any 5G migration option.
  - [Virtualization of gateways](/content/products/function-consolidation/index.html) (like Security gateway, Small Cells gateway, Wi-Fi gateways, etc.) as VNFs allows flexibility to introduce new components and services within the network.
