Developers can add support to their mobile applications to test routing traffic through the slice, and evaluate performance characteristics such as:\n\n- Latency \n- Packet loss \n- Jitter \n- Muting \n- Frame rate (FPS)\n\n**Note:** The Video calling slice is currently in beta test trial and is not yet commercially available.\nTo apply for beta test access, please submit the [form](\u002F5g-network-slicing).\n\n### Support\n\nIf you have questions or need help enabling network slicing or provisioning SIMs, please reach out to your DevEdge point of contact. For device or operating-system specific questions related to calling the network slice, please consult the relevant third-party documentation, linked above.\n\n#### Feedback\n\nPlease share any and all feedback related to network slicing with your DevEdge point of contact.\nWhen doing so, please include as much information as possible about:\n\n- Location of the client device \n- Location of server being connected to \n- Performance KPIs used in your traffic evaluation",{"docPagePath":26,"pageName":27},"documentation>network-slicing>slicing-overview","documentation"]
