End-to-end mobility control with cloud-native scale
Mobility Services Control Plane
Centralized core logic for mobility, policy, charging, and subscriber management across all generations, offering a consistent operational foundation that enables evolution from core services toward 5G SA.
Mobility Services User Plane
Cloud-native user plane integrates scalable User Plane Function (UPF) support with flexible resource allocation and rolling upgrades — optimized for throughput, edge services, and evolving customer needs.
Use cases
Multigenerational core network consolidation
Consolidate 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G core functions on a single cloud-native gateway, simplifying operations while maintaining consistent services across network generations.
Seamless transition to 5G Standalone (5G SA)
Enable a smooth evolution to 5G SA while sustaining existing 4G services, preserving functional parity and minimizing disruption as new services and users are introduced.
Elastic scaling during 4G to 5G migration
Dynamically scale compute resources between 4G and 5G user traffic without downtime, optimizing infrastructure utilization as subscriber demand shifts over time.
High-performance user plane for diverse services
Deliver optimized throughput and reliability using a cloud-native user plane with flexible resource allocation, supporting use cases like FWA, consumer mobility, and IoT.
Key Capabilities
Unified multigenerational control plane
A common control plane supports 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G SA services, enabling consistent policy, mobility, and session management. It helps ensure seamless 3GPP-compliant handovers and maintains functional parity during the transition to 5G SA.
Cloud-native, high-performance user plane
A microservices-based user plane delivers high throughput, flexible resource allocation, and rolling upgrades with no service disruption. It supports diverse use cases such as fixed wireless access, consumer mobility, and IoT with optimized performance.
