Hyderabad: Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Ltd. (BCSSL) (BSE: 539607) has successfully completed India’s first enterprise-grade BSNL 5G FWA deployment, achieving formal Proof of Concept (POC) sign-off at the MINDI Exchange in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh.
The project was executed in collaboration with Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) and Orange Business Services.
BSNL 5G FWA Deployment Enabled Through BNG-Based Architecture
As part of the BSNL 5G FWA deployment, BCSSL implemented a first-of-its-kind Broadband Network Gateway (BNG)-based subscriber management framework, moving beyond conventional tunnel-centric approaches such as GRE.
This advanced architecture enables carrier-grade subscriber authentication, dynamic IP address allocation, Quality of Service (QoS) enforcement, and seamless integration with BSNL’s billing and Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) systems.
The BNG-driven design ensures native broadband session control and policy enforcement, offering superior scalability, reliability, and operational readiness compared to traditional tunnelling mechanisms.
This makes the solution fully aligned with large-scale ISP and enterprise broadband requirements, strengthening BSNL’s preparedness for commercial 5G FWA rollout.

Successful Validation of End-to-End BSNL 5G FWA Deployment
The POC validated the end-to-end BSNL 5G FWA deployment, including 5G access network, core, radio, and customer premises equipment (CPE), under real-world field conditions.
All planned test cases – covering throughput, latency, jitter, session setup, and connection stability – were executed successfully and met the defined key performance indicators (KPIs).
The deployment demonstrated seamless interoperability between QuadGen RAN, HPE Core, and BSNL’s transport, BNG, and AAA systems.
The project was supervised, tested, and formally validated by BSNL’s technical teams, who confirmed successful POC completion.
