As part of testing the 5G disaggregated RAN with specific load, the exercise was done by enabling or disabling C6 state on all unused CPU cores. The test results show 20 Watts of energy saving at low load and 5+ Watts at full peak load if C6 state is enabled compared to disabled for the unused CPU cores.
