Feb News: Edgecore Disaggregated Open vBNG and DCSG Network Solutions for Telecom and Service Providers

 
Edgecore’s Telco Solution Overview

Edgecore offers disaggregated telco solutions ranging from PON to cell site gateways, aggregation routers, to core routers. Our mission at Edgecore is to provide end-to-end disaggregated solutions, which allow hardware and software elements to be separated, permitting customers to select and control which solutions they deploy.

The distributed and disaggregated architecture is scalable, allowing additional leaves and spines to be added as required, improving TCO. Edgecore offers disaggregated solutions that enable open network deployments for broadband access, edge computing, mobile backhaul, and edge switching use cases.

 

 
 
Open and Disaggregated Broadband Network Gateway (BNG)

The Benefits of Open BNG?
An open and disaggregated BNG provides the following key benefits compared to traditional BNG solutions:

Enables the introduction of new innovative services from different vendors.
Open hardware and open software allows greater choice and flexibility in deployment. No vendor lock-in.
Lower costs based on COTS components and open software compared to traditional BNG.
Enables different deployment models, such as centralized, distributed, or standalone BNG, or BNG with a router.
 

Edgecore's BNG Solution
Edgecore offers open and disaggregated hardware platforms that host BNG software components from different NOS software vendors, forming a BNG solution. The Edgecore BNG solution includes disaggregated BNG software from partners such as RtBrick, Altran, Casa Systems, and Benu Networks. Edgecore's BNG solution supports different deployment models and scalability configurations.

The following open BNG hardware platforms are offered by Edgecore:

CSR320 (300G Access Router)

Suitable for smaller distributed BNG deployments closer to subscribers, and is located between the access network and the aggregation/core network.

 

 

AGR130 (800G Aggregation Router)

Suitable for medium centralized or distributed BNG deployments located between the aggregation and core network. Supports MPLS and PE router functionality along with BNG. Scales to support a higher number of subscribers and traffic throughput.

 
 
The Industry's Most Comprehensive Disaggregated Cell Site Gateway Portfolio

Why a Disaggregated Cell Site Gateway Solution for 5G Networks?

5G Readiness: Mobile operators are rapidly building new capacity to respond to the introduction of 5G services. The traditional cell site gateway cannot meet the exponential growth of backhaul traffic.
Open and Disaggregated Architecture: With an open hardware platform architecture, operators now can obtain greater control over the development of enhanced network services, and enjoy the flexibility of working with best-in-class suppliers.
Cost-Effective Solution: Due to the Millimeter Wave technology used by 5G, hundreds of thousands of small cells need to be installed. Operators need a cost-effective solution to reduce both CAPEX and OPEX without compromising features, performance, and quality.
 

The Edgecore CSR Series

Edgecore pioneered open network DCSGs and was the first vendor to contribute open platforms to the Open Compute Project (OCP) and the Telecom Infra Project (TIP). Edgecore's ruggedized high-performance, deep-packet buffer family of DCSGs are suitable for access and aggregation applications in remote cabinet and facility-based deployments. The compact and temperature-hardened DCSG family supports ultra-precise IEEE 1588 and Synchronous Ethernet, flexible combinations of 1G, 10G, 25G, 100G, and 400G network interfaces, and choice of airflow. Additionally, 100G unit stacking can be supported, an industry first for open networking DCSGs. Stacking provides advanced redundancy and a unified control, forwarding, and management plane. Edgecore’s DCSG family supports a vibrant ecosystem of Network Operating System (NOS) partners, offering the ultimate choice for networkoperators.
