KUALA LUMPUR, Mavenir, the cloud-native network infrastructure provider, has won the Leading Lights Network Energy Efficiency Award for its Energy-Efficient 5G User Plane Function (UPF) solution.
Mavenir President, Core Networks, Ashok Khuntia said this award underscores the value of strategic collaborations and the integration of the company’s ‘green by design’ advanced technologies in driving industry-wide progress and sustainability.
‘We have not only demonstrated significant energy savings and performance improvements for 5G core networks but have also set a new standard for energy-efficient network infrastructure,’ he said in a statement.
Delivering substantial energy savings, operational efficiency, and enhanced performance for its mobile network operator customers, Mavenir has demonstrated remarkable success with its UPF solution.
With a significant 40 per cent power saving even under the most demanding conditions, such as a 100 per cent traffic load, this impressive efficiency is due in part to Ma
venir’s utilisation of NVIDIA ASAP2 Accelerated Switching and Packet Processing technology, which allows Mavenir to accelerate the UPF- data plane on NVIDIA solutions and plays a pivotal role in conserving power.
Mavenir’s cloud-native architecture seamlessly integrates with 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable Processors and NVIDIA ConnectX-6 Dx SmartNIC acceleration technology, and this powerful combination allows customers to enjoy the dual benefits of enhanced power efficiency and high-performance packet processing.
Its solution also enables a small footprint UPF at the edge, reducing latency, improving local data processing, and minimising operational costs. The innovative architecture, coupled with advanced technologies, ensures that Mavenir’s customers can achieve significant energy savings and operational efficiencies.
The Leading Light Network Energy Efficiency Award is given to the company that has helped a network operator best improve the energy efficiency of its networks by retiring or consolidating in
frastructure, using modern software and equipment, and adopting more data-driven operations, among others.
The Leading Lights Awards is Light Reading’s flagship awards programme, now in its 20th year, recognises the top companies and their executives for outstanding achievements in the global communications industry, presenting an exceptional snapshot of the technology, applications, services and innovation that help telecom, cable and cloud providers stand out.
