Solution Overview

The converged edge will play a key role in a service provider's overall 5G strategy by delivering services and connectivity in support of specific industry verticals.  Better yet, it's doing so with a common infrastructure that makes the management of the platform and the services delivered by it less complex. 

WWT's CEP solution is a multi-purpose platform in a single box -- a containerized approach that offers a repeatable, scalable approach to 5G for enterprises to more quickly consume technologies and makes it simpler for operators to deploy: 

  • A platform to deliver MEC applications for enterprise industry verticals.  
  • Enterprise connectivity via Private LTE.  
  • An NFVI platform to deliver virtualized services to the enterprise.
