Adax Solutions for Femto/Home NodeB Gateways

Femtocell Access Points (FAP) enhance in-building access and the Femtocell Gateway (FGW), also referred to as the Home NodeB Gateway (HNBGW) provides access to the core network. Supporting both voice and data services the FGW delivers control and user plane capabilities and provides aggregation 100s & 1,000s of FAPs. The FGW provides protocol interworking to the core network with 3.5/3G SS7 TDM or ATM transport and can be deployed as a fully integrated standalone device or with an external Security Gateway and/or Media Controller.

The APR is the ideal host for the FGW application and flexible I/O options are available with the HDC3 for TDM interfaces and the ATM4 providing access to 2.5 and 3G networks at the same time. The FGW is scalable on a blade by blade basis from 2U to 5U to 12U chassis with a fully redundant and Highly-Available architecture of ATCA components and HA software delivering a cost-effective solution.

Adax Solutions for Security Gateways (SEG)

Security is the largest problem to solve for LTE/4G and Cloud Computing. Every device in the network will either have embedded security or an SEG to protect it and in the case of LTE IPv6 requires security on every connection. Standalone SEGs are often ‘overkill’ in terms of capacity and are expensive to field.

The APR is the ideal host for an SEG integrated with any device such as a FemtoGW with the on-board Cavium on the APR or PktAMC supporting the security applications, IPsec and FastPath processing on its cores. The flexibility of the APR supports IPsec-enabled PktAMCs and HDC3/ATM4 cards in the same blade and more PktAMCs and I/O cards can be added as required for more IPsec Security Associations or users, providing a completely scalable solution.
