Revolutionizing Performance Measurement: Industry-First Methodology for Testing 5G Network Slices Enabled by Ookla and Ericsson23.2.2026 13:00:00 EET | Press release
Ookla®, a global leader in connectivity intelligence, and Ericsson, a world leader in communications technology, demonstrate an innovative solution allowing users to measure and validate 5G network slicing performance. This collaboration marks a major milestone in the 5G-Advanced era, providing a way to validate the Quality of Experience (QoE) essential for the next generation of mobile applications and use cases. Historically, measuring the performance of an individual network slice from a consumer or enterprise device has been a significant technical challenge. Traditional speed tests measure the default internet connection. Through this collaboration, Ookla and Ericsson developed a methodology that enables the Speedtest app to identify and test specific network slices. This breakthrough demonstrates how Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for differentiated services can finally be verified in real-time by both consumers using the Speedtest app and service providers. Crucially, this puts
