D2.3 Final 5G-EVE end to end facility description

The main objective of this deliverable is to describe the final status of the 5G EVE facility in terms of architecture, capabilities, network KPIs, and infrastructures.
This document presents the main features and the related improvements that the 5G EVE facility has recorded during this year (2021). Indeed, whereas with Milestone 8 (MS8), which was reached at the end of 2019, the project provided all the components needed for building the E2E infrastructure, MS9 was achieved in June 2020, followed by MS10 in December, with the integration of these components into the infrastructure. In this way, the project realized the final validation of the E2E facility, for Milestone 11 (MS11), consisting of an E2E network framework based on 5G Stand Alone (SA) mode with R15 capabilities in either FR1 or FR2 frequency bands. The complete infrastructure is summarized in this deliverable, showing that 5G EVE is in advance in terms of features availabilities compared to the current commercial deployments implemented in Europe. At the end of the project activities 5G EVE is then able to propose to the verticals, that used 5G EVE facility, an E2E framework allowing them to test and validate their use-cases, even anticipating their commercial 5G operation.
More in details, the aim of this deliverable is to describe the main activities that have been carried out to achieve the challenging objective of building and delivering the 5G EVE Pan-European E2E facility. First, the document explains the main architecture design that is adopted for implementing this 5G platform as a support for the verticals experimenting their use-cases, showing the 5G EVE facility potential to deploy services considering also multi-sites framework. Next, the network infrastructure KPIs and the methodology that has been put in place for measuring, collecting, and monitoring them by the vertical partners is described in details. Then, before going through the description of each site facility, a synthesis table of the main features supported by the 5G EVE facility is provided. Last, this deliverable is completed by presenting the final version of the 5G EVE facility in every site in Italy, France, Spain and Greece.
