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% power saving even under the most demanding conditions, such as a 100% traffic load, this impressive efficiency is due in part to Mavenir's utilization of NVIDIA ASAP2 Accelerated Switching & Packet Processing™ technology, which allows Mavenir to accelerate the UPF - data plane on NVIDIA solutions and plays a pivotal role in conserving power. Leveraging Intel Infrastructure Power Manager functionality further enhances power savings, reaching up to 62% during 50% traffic load and idle load scenarios.
“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,” said Ashok Khuntia, President, Core Networks, Mavenir. “This award underscores the value of strategic collaborations and the integration of our 'green by design' advanced technologies in driving industry-wide progress and sustainability.”
Mavenir's solution also enables a small footprint UPF at the edge, reducing latency, improving local data processing, and minimizing operational costs. The innovative architecture, coupled with advanced technologies, ensures that Mavenir's customers can achieve significant energy savings and operational efficiencies.
