By
Telecom Lead Team: Juniper Networks has launched its Universal Access solution
to support more mobile calls and transactions with fewer dropped calls, improve
network utilization and revenue opportunities for service providers.
The
Juniper Networks Universal Access solution enables service providers to
converge wired and wireless network access to deliver a superior subscriber
experience while lowering the total cost of operating, maintaining and updating
the network infrastructure.
“With
a focus on improving the total subscriber experience and the economic viability
of the mobile network, Juniper has prioritized investments in innovations that
make extraordinary leaps in service delivery and operator profitability,”
Rami Rahim, senior vice president and general manager, Edge and Aggregation
Business Unit, Juniper Networks.
Juniper
Networks ACX Series Universal Access Routers is a family of access routers that
addresses new network imperatives with up to three times the total throughput
of competitive solutions, while creating a seamless end-to-end service delivery
platform.
Extending
the benefits of the Juniper Networks Universal Edge solution, Universal Access
converges networks for capital and operational savings, provides optimal
flexibility in traffic management to keep up with dynamic subscriber
requirements, and provides an open platform for faster service innovation and
third-party interworking.
“As
a converged carrier with Juniper’s MPLS solutions already widely deployed on
our network, we expect to achieve an unprecedented reduction in our capital and
operating expenses while providing our customers with the most advanced mobile
and wireline services powered by the proven operating system, Junos,” Igor
Semenov, deputy chief of networks development department, Rostelecom Volga.
“Given
our weather extremes, we are excited about the environmental hardening
including passive cooling, extraordinary reliability metrics and the power over
Ethernet. By using the same Junos operating system we run on our Juniper
Networks MX Series routers, we can seamlessly support our customers in a new
cost-effective way by enabling rapid and reliable service delivery,”
Daniel Kerschbaum, senior manager, IP & Transmission Engineering, Alaska
Communications.
“We
are adding the new Juniper ACX Series to our portfolio supporting the IP access
and aggregation network. In fact, we have developed an application via the
Junos SDK to make the routers aware of microwave capacities in real-time to
further improve the user experience in mobile broadband networks. This approach
supports our Liquid Transport offerings in terms of optimal capacity use and
management,” Marc Rouanne, head of networks systems, Nokia Siemens
Networks.
