Mavenir and Red Hat Collaborate to Launch Converged Packet Core Solution

Mavenir announced the launch of its Converged Packet Core solution. Running on Red Hat OpenShift, the Converged Packet Core solution delivers a fully containerized and automated solution built on a services-based open architecture for public, private, hybrid, edge and on-premises cloud deployment. In addition, Mavenir says its solution runs on general-purpose commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware and can be deployed and operated without any dependencies.

The integrated solution is being deployed by six tier-1 and tier-2 service providers in global markets, including Europe, North America and Asia. Earlier in February, Norway’s third largest mobile operator, Ice, announced the fully automated deployment of cloud-native Converged Packet Core, supporting 4G, 5G Non-Standalone (NSA) and 5G Standalone (SA) network capabilities for its network in Norway, over Mavenir’s Cloud Automation for Telco framework within Ice private data centres.

Mavenir said its integrated solution delivers a comprehensive, carrier-grade end-to-end stack, from the operating system to the cloud-native network functions (CNFs), designed for the telecommunication industry. Mavenir has validated the end-to-end telco stack and addresses multiple customer requirements learned through Mavenir’s and Red Hat’s experience.

Ashok Khuntia, President of Core Networks, Mavenir, said: “Some operators are unfamiliar with containers and cloud, so a solution from a single, reliable vendor that can offer an integrated end-to-end, turnkey solution is essential for their success.”

“By collaborating with Red Hat, Mavenir extends the reach of its Converged Packet Core support public, private, hybrid and on-premises deployments, with built-in automation, better cost efficiencies and less complexity.”
