Long Term Evolution (LTE (News - Alert)) technology has brought wireless connectivity into the fourth generation (4G) era. It is touted as a radio platform technology that offers full vehicular speed mobility and can work efficiently in both HSPA and older legacy networks.
According to a press release, just recently a wireless connectivity partnership was formed between ZNYX, an innovator of high-density solutions enabling platforms for carrier-grade and mission critical environments and Adax (News - Alert), a company that specializes in high-performance packet-processing, security and network infrastructure.
As both 4G LTE and 3G networks are continuing to add capabilities in order to measure up to exceeding user’s expectations, these companies are now bringing a mid-size AdvancedTCA (ATCA) LTE Core solution based on the Aricent (News - Alert) EPC Lite framework to market.
Equipped with six payload slots for 10G ATCA 3.1 blades, the single ZX2000 5U platform works very well for demanding applications like LTE EPC that require high performance, reliability and scalability. A single ZX2000 5U platform is far better than simple Ethernet switch management and can support up to 200,000 active and idle LTE users.
"Our vision when creating the ZX2000 was to invent a 'right sized' platform that capitalizes on our technological expertise," said Connie Austin, president and CEO, ZNYX Networks (News - Alert), in a statement. "With the additional payload slots, the Ultra5 mid-size platform delivers the benefits and compatibility of ATCA systems with an unmatched revenue generating potential."
This robust wireless connectivity solution is highly scalable and enables original equipment manufacturers, system integrators and application developers to quickly create highly available solutions adapted to specific environments.
Drew Sproul, director of marketing, Adax Inc. added, "ZNYX OpenArchitect switch management software, as well as the 6-slot payload capabilities of the ZX2000 versus the 4-slot payload that other industry players offer, truly sets the platform apart from the competition."
