Mavenir vEPC
Lowering Network TCO with a Virtualized Core Mavenir vEPC
Mobile operators are competing to add capacity and services quickly, yet are finding that their traditional hardware-based architectures make this endeavor too expensive and time-consuming. By moving to a virtualized Evolved Packet Core (vEPC), operators can quickly react to market changes, reduce backhaul costs, and reduce services time to market by simplifying deployment, interoperability, and optimization. A recent IDC study shows that virtualizing the entire set of EPC functions enables the mobile network infrastructure to operate at a higher utilization rate of up to 87%, resulting in opex cost efficiencies of up to 25%. The study also shows that factors such as the extent of network virtualization and control/user plane separation–driven architectures can result in potential opex cost savings in the range of 20 to 40% over a five-year period (Figure 1).

K E Y B E N E F I T S
• Opex savings up to 40% over 5 years compared to traditional EPC deployment
• On-demand scalability optimizes resource usage and increases business agility
• Natively 5G ready with an integrated 4G/5G core
• Low-latency use cases by placing user plane at the network edge
• Rich application integration using built-in data correlation and streaming capabilities
TYPOGRAPHY: ACRONYM CAPITALIZATIONTechnical acronyms that require a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters can be challenging to keep consistent across material.
As a general rule, when ALL CAPS are used in marketing artwork, small caps should be used in place of lowercase letters.
Upper-lower can be used in all other instances.
