PacketAMC –

User & Control Plane processing for LTE, 4G, NGMN and IMS networks

Adax’s long experience in signaling reliability and performance is brought to bear on user and control plane applications for the ALL-IP Network with the PacketAMC (PktAMC). The PktAMC provides front-end intelligent processing for Traffic and Bandwidth Management, QoS and Security on all Wireless applications, delivering a highly available, high-performance, carrier-grade transport from the Edge to Core networks.

With a Cavium OCTEON Plus processor, front-end processing of the Layer 2 protocols can reside on the PktAMC, providing hardware acceleration of the basic Layer 2 switching, while higher-level functionality such as Advanced Layer 2 Switching and Routing, MPLS-TP, PBB-TE, QoS, Layer 3 Networking, High Availability and Management run on the Adax PacketRunner (APR).

The Adax PktAMC is applicable in the broadest range of ATCA legacy and emerging network elements found in today’s networks such as MSCs, MGWs, HLRs, x-CSCFs, HSSs, etc. The combination of the PktAMC and the APR delivers a ‘foundation’ for LTE, 4G, IMS, NGMN, VoLTE, UMA & Femtocell applications.
