The Network X Awards recognize innovation and achievement across the global telecom industry, spanning network infrastructure, 5G, broadband, AI and next-generation connectivity. The Solution Provider categories specifically highlight leading technologies and solutions from vendors and technology providers.
For 2026, AxyomCore has been shortlisted in two categories:
- Leading Core Network Solution
- Best Indoor Connectivity Solution
The two nominations recognize different areas of our portfolio, but together reflect a common focus: helping operators build networks that are more flexible, resilient and easier to deploy.
Leading Core Network Solution
AxyomCore has been shortlisted for its work in cloud-native mobile core. The AxyomCore Cloud Native Core includes the network functions needed to support leading operators across a wide range of deployment models and use cases. The nomination is supported by customer references and real-world deployments that demonstrate measurable outcomes. For example, a recent project with Telenor shows how core network functions can be distributed between central and remote locations to help maintain critical connectivity even when connectivity back to the central network is disrupted.
For operators, this type of architecture creates new possibilities for resilient edge deployments, local traffic handling and the delivery of services in remote or challenging environments. The list of companies featured in the Leading Core Network Solution Award shortlist include AxyomCore, Singtel and Huawei.
Best Indoor Connectivity Solution
Our second nomination recognizes AxyomCore’s indoor connectivity portfolio and small cells. As demand for reliable cellular connectivity continues to move indoors, operators and enterprises need ways to improve coverage and capacity without adding unnecessary infrastructure and complexity. AxyomCore’s enterprise small cell solutions support both 4G and 5G and are designed to provide high-capacity indoor coverage across environments ranging from offices and venues to warehouses and other operational sites. The technology has already been deployed in demanding real-world environments.
Recognition across core and RAN
Being shortlisted across both core network and indoor connectivity categories reflects the breadth of technology and expertise across our teams, from the network functions powering cloud-native 4G and 5G networks to the radio solutions extending high-performance connectivity closer to users and devices.
Thank you to everyone across AxyomCore, as well as our customers and partners, whose work and collaboration have contributed to these nominations.
The Network X Awards winners will be announced in Vienna on 14 October 2026.
