Telefonica selects Mavenir to supply cloud-native IMS Core

Telefonica Hispam has selected Mavenir to supply cloud-native IMS Core for fixed and mobile networks across Mexico, Colombia, and Chile.
Mavenir’s IMS platform serves as the foundational technology for 5G networks. The transition to automated IMS, will allow Telefonica Hispam to evolve all fixed and mobile voice services and modernize operations. The solution will be deployed on TCloud, Telefonica’s private telco cloud infrastructure.

Mavenir’s IMS allows Telefonica to operate with web-scale agility, ensuring 5G transformation is layered on existing 4G networks using a microservice-based architecture.

“At Telefonica, we appreciate that core network functions must be modernized to support network evolution, and virtualized architectures will need software that supports both VoLTE and 5G Voice,” said Alejandro Ghianni, Planification and Engineering Director at Telefonica Hispam.
