Huawei Launches World's First Service and Experience-Centric, Agile Branch Solution

Huawei (News - Alert), a leading Information and Communications Technology solutions provider recently unveiled industry’s first service and experience-centric, Agile (News - Alert) Branch Solution at the Huawei Networking Congress 2014.

The Agile Branch Solution enables fast service deployment and simplified operation and maintenance.

Officials said that the solution, a key component of Huawei's agile network strategies and architecture, also enables integration with value-added trends such as Big Data, Mobile Internet, and the Internet of Things.

One of the company's key innovations for 2014, the Agile Branch Solution, looks after a series of problems in branch network deployment, operation, and maintenance. It is also the first agile switch to feature zero-touch local maintenance on branch networks.

Huawei has launched the industry's first Agile Branch Solution in two layers: the Agile Controller and the Agile Gateway (News - Alert). With this launch, the company has become the first vendor in the ICT industry to integrate Information Technologies and Communications Technologies within the branch gateway via virtualization and implementation of in-depth resource sharing.

Based on Software Defined Network and Network Function Virtualization converged infrastructure, the solution is also able to offer IT and CT resources for centralized control and maintenance. This further helps users to remotely define the logical networking structure of a branch office.

"The Huawei Agile Branch Solution will completely change the form and structure of traditional devices," said Xianyin Li, General Manager of router products for Huawei's Enterprise Network Product Line, in a press statement. "This solution changes the network construction and operation models of branches, thereby producing new business models."

Earlier this month, TMCnet reported that Huawei was awarded 'Best VoLTE Product' for its end-to-end voice and video over LTE solution and 'Most Innovative Virtualized IMS Solution' for its Cloud IMS solution at the 2014 IMS World Forum in Barcelona, Spain.
