Orion Network

Firecell Orion Network is an Open Source private 5G Lab network for indoor and outdoor development and tests.

1 hardware server with :

  • Firecell 5G Core software
  • Firecell Network Management System

1 to 10 gNodeBs :

  • Mid & High power radios, with hardware server containing Firecell RAN software, high-gain antennas
  • Low power Open-RAN indoor radios with external antennas

Manage your network without technical knowledge

Firecell’s Network Management System is an interface that enables system administrators or IT Departments to simply operate their Private 5G network without requiring deep knowledge of network coding and configuration. You have access to the connected devices and their status, the throughput, and the allocated resources. You can monitor each access point and its status while filtering them by indoor and outdoor placements. 

Firecell’s Network Management System also allows you to control, configure and monitor the status of your private network in real-time. You can provision SIM cards and manage devices by yourself, manage users and control their roles with a simple interface.

Support from experts

Orion Network comes with online access to source code and documentation You also get access to the Firecell Customer Service portal, where you can raise questions and submit issues.

With Gold Support, our experts will guide you through the configuration and operation of Orion Network and any 5G device validated by Firecell.

If your objective is to integrate Orion Network with third party software or with devices not yet validated by Firecell, or to develop your own software extensions, Firecell’s Platinum Support is just what you need to help you reach your goal.
