BATM Advanced Communications Limited's wholly-owned subsidiary Telco Systems has entered into a non-exclusive partnership with FatPipe Networks a leading provider of Software-Defined Wide-Area Networks (SD-WAN) and hybrid WANs.

The partnership will provide a hardware/software agnostic solution offering real-time SD-WAN virtual network function (VNF) services. As a result of this partnership with Telco, FatPipe is now the only SD-WAN provider that can operate on both Arm and Intel (x86) architectures. This represents the first solution to be delivered under the Group’s previously-announced joint development agreement with Arm.

Dr Zvi Marom, Chief Executive Officer of BATM, said:

“We are delighted to have achieved this first milestone under our joint development agreement with Arm to offer a full ecosystem of VNF services that are optimised to run on Arm’s architecture and to be used by Arm partners.

“FatPipe is a leading provider of SD-WAN, which is vital to today’s enterprises, and we are very pleased that they have chosen to partner with us. This joint offering will enable operators to easily and rapidly launch SD-WAN services over Intel and Arm architectures, being optimised for Arm, as well as any additional VNF services. We look forward to working together to deliver this market-leading solution and to continuing to expand our partners for the provision of further VNF services.”

Software-Defined Networking both for Local and Wide-Area networks is the latest solution that the various service providers and telecom operators are deploying. SD-WAN allows companies to build higher-performance WANs using lower-cost and commercially-available Internet access, enabling them to partially or wholly replace more expensive private WAN connection technologies such as MPLS. It also enables the deployment of many more applications to cater for the ever-growing number of new applications being used by the consumers.

The new joint offering combines Telco’s NFVTime uCPE and FatPipe’s SD-WAN solution to offer telecom operators and managed service providers a high performance, plug-and-play framework to accelerate SD-WAN deployments.
