Multi-Access CORD and Extensible RAN Use Cases Featured in
ONF Partner Showcase
Radisys® Corporation (NASDAQ: RSYS), a global leader of open
telecom solutions, today announced an industry first Multi-Access
Central Office Re-architected as a Datacenter (Multi-Access CORD)
proof-of-concept and an Extensible RAN (xRAN) PoC to be showcased
at MWC Americas. The two new use cases, both running on Radisys’
DCEngine open hardware, enable Communications Service Providers
(CSPs) to optimize resources in a CORD™ environment, allowing for
rapid roll-out of new services with a better return on
investment.
Highlights:
- CSPs are rethinking their network
access design in order to support billions of connected devices and
meet the demands of new innovative services. The CORD platform is
an open architecture that brings data center economies and cloud
agility to the network for the delivery of mobile, residential and
enterprise services.
- To date, CSPs have been constrained by
data centers for either wireline (OLT) or wireless (RAN) access.
This results in duplicate central offices laden with proprietary
infrastructure and redundant systems to deliver each service,
resulting in higher CapEx and OpEx costs.
- Radisys’ Multi-Access CORD use case
demonstration proves that since the flexible CORD architecture is
agnostic to the access technologies, CSPs can leverage the same
CORD data center for both wireline and wireless access. CSPs can
thereby deliver a higher quality experience to their subscribers
with one open architecture, while reducing network complexity and
costs.
- Radisys’ xRAN use case demonstration
allows CSPs to optimize scarce over-the-air resources leveraging
real-time data analytics of network conditions. This software-based
approach to RAN reduces complexity, OpEx and CapEx, while allowing
CSPs to respond real-time to user needs and rapidly roll-out new
services.
- Both proof-of-concepts are running on
Radisys’ open compute-based DCEngine, which provides an economical,
scalable open platform for pooled compute and storage resources in
a CORD environment.
- Radisys will be showcase the
Multi-Access CORD and xRAN proof-of-concepts in the ONF Partner
Showcase, N.322 at Mobile World Congress Americas, September 12-14
in San Francisco. Contact open@radisys.com to schedule a meeting
with Radisys’ CORD experts.
“The CORD reference architecture meets CSP requirements for
next-gen service delivery, while at the same time freeing them from
vendor-locked solutions,” said Bryan Sadowski, vice president,
FlowEngine and DCEngine, Radisys. “Radisys, in collaboration with
the ONF, is making the CORD architecture accessible to CSPs for
deployment with these innovative proof-of-concepts as the first
step toward Central Office transformation.”
“From the beginning, one of the main goals of the CORD project
has always been to create a general-purpose platform capable of
delivering a wide range of innovative services for mobile,
residential and enterprise subscribers,” said Guru Parulkar,
executive director, Open Networking Foundation (ONF). “Radisys’
delivery of a Multi-Access CORD solution furthers our mission by
providing CSPs with one solution that will support multiple classes
of subscribers. We are pleased to partner with Radisys and feature
this innovative solution in our Partner Showcase at MWC
Americas.”
