Tailored virtual networks
For guaranteed quality of service, security and efficiency
5G network slicing creates dedicated virtual segments, known as 5G slices, within the public 5G mobile network – individually tailored to specific customer requirements. Whether highly secure data for system-critical processes, guaranteed latency for real-time communication, or high bandwidth for data-intensive applications: Each 5G slice provides exactly the required network quality – powerful, reliable and safe.

5G network slicing on a glance
- Virtual, isolated network instances within Telefónica Germany´s public 5G infrastructure
- Flexibly configurable according to requirements (e.g. latency, bandwidth, availability)
- Support for latency-critical applications through local multi-access edge computing servers
- Automated, locally limitable provisioning and demand-driven scaling
Benefits of 5G network slicing
- Low entry barrier and rapid project scalability thanks to the use of existing physical infrastructure of the public 5G network
- High data security thanks to end-to-end separation of data flow via core, transport network and radio
- High reliability of mobile connectivity thanks to separate network instances with guaranteed resources
Customizable network profiles tailored to individual applications
enhancing control without complex deployment
Based on existing 5G mobile communications infrastructure, 5G network slicing enables flexible configurations for a wide range of application scenarios. Compared to the publicly accessible 5G network, it offers significantly more control and guaranteed performance characteristics – without the implementation effort of a completely private network.
Industrial applications such as intelligent warehouse logistics with autonomous vehicles, connected production facilities, predictive maintenance, or digital twins benefit from dedicated resources, low latency, and high availability.
5G network slicing thus opens a scalable model for the development and provision of innovative services – a forward-looking combination of public network flexibility and private network quality.

Companies which want to develop their own applications that benefit from the flexibility of mobile communications and at the same time have higher requirements than the shared public mobile network can meet, will find a trustworthy and experienced partner in Telefónica Germany.
