Com4 selects Nokia 5G Standalone Core to power global IoT services

Com4, a full MVNO and part of the Wireless Logic Group, has selected Nokia as the main supplier for its new 5G Standalone Core. The new core enables Com4 to deliver secure, scalable IoT services globally and meet rising demand for low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity.

Nokia’s 5G Core solution supports all radio access technologies (2G to 5G SA), ensuring backward compatibility while enabling next-generation capabilities. It also supports fixed wireless access (FWA) and satellite-based broadband, making it a future-ready platform for IoT growth.

Com4 serves a wide range of industries—including energy, transport, health, and security—where secure, reliable connectivity is critical. Nokia’s flexible architecture allows Com4 to deploy advanced features such as:

Support for LPWA technologies: LTE-M, NB-IoT, and RedCap.

SIM-level service control and multi-IMSI functionality for network redundancy and global customization.

Appliance-based edge gateways for localized deployment and compliance with data sovereignty rules.

Advanced MPLS support for scalable IP/MPLS integration.

A robust platform for secure VPNs, cloud interconnects, and full-stack service management.

Full API support for automation and orchestration of advanced B2B services.

Nokia’s full-stack Core includes Packet Core, Policy Control, Charging, Subscriber Data Management, and the Nokia Cloud Platform , which integrates Red Hat OpenShift*, the industry’s leading hybrid cloud application platform powered by Kubernetes.

“Enterprise IoT demands more than connectivity. It requires flexibility and security built-in,” says Martin Nord, CTO and CPO at Com4. “With this core, we can customize services per device, control deployments globally, and respond faster to new market needs.”

“IoT service providers are becoming a major part of mobile core growth with unique requirements. Nokia’s 5G Core provides strong and cost-effective capabilities tailored to IoT - from new capabilities to enable global IoT device roaming to onboarding millions of devices. These features help providers like Com4 shape and scale their services with greater accuracy and less complexity,” said Erez Sverdlov, Vice President, Cloud and Network Services’ Market Leader for Europe at Nokia.

This deployment strengthens Com4’s ability to serve enterprise customers while reinforcing Nokia’s role as a key technology partner in the evolution of IoT connectivity.
