ADVA announced that TPx has selected its Ensemble software as the basis of a new universal customer premises (uCPE) platform. Ensemble software suite for uCPE brings additional simplicity, speed and agility to TPx’s leading managed service offering.
The managed services provider will harness the high-performance virtualization suite to power its ReadyEdge uCPE offering, enabling it to quickly and easily roll out and manage multiple dynamic virtual network functions (VNFs) for its enterprise customers. Services such as managed SD-WAN and firewall products will be deployed on a single dedicated hardware device at customer sites.
TPx currently delivers unified communications, managed IT, network security and network connectivity to over 53,000 customer locations. With ADVA’s Ensemble software and ReadyEdge uCPE platform, TPx clients can look forward to an enhanced customer experience, faster provisioning and simpler deployments, as well as quicker reconfiguration of service changes.
The TPx managed hosting service leverages a number of products from the Ensemble software suite, including Ensemble Orchestrator, Ensemble Virtualization Director and Ensemble Connector. It also offers access to the Ensemble Harmony Ecosystem, the market’s largest set of onboarded VNFs and virtual servers.
