Active Broadband Networks, an innovative supplier of software-defined networking (SDN) solutions for broadband service providers, Wednesday announced that it has joined the Intel® Network Builders program. This program brings together leading ecosystem vendors to showcase solutions that make it easier for operators to deploy software-defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualization (NFV) solutions.
Active Broadband recently introduced the industry's first Software-Defined Broadband Network Gateway (SD-BNG), a platform that leverages SDN and NFV technologies with the aim to reduce the cost and complexity of broadband service delivery. Active Broadband Networks said that the SD-BNG provides simplified orchestration, proactive Quality-of-Experience (QoE) management and simple virtual network functions (VNF) deployment, allowing operators to significantly increase operational efficiencies, slash capital outlays, and rapidly create, deploy and modify new services that increase market penetration and improve customer satisfaction.
