About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals.

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on:

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Adtran launches Ensemble Cloudlet vRouter for rapid delivery of enterprise edge services

News summary:

  • Service providers need a flexible, cloud-managed way to replace aging edge routers and boost enterprise ARPU
  • Adtran’s Ensemble Cloudlet vRouter combines virtual routing, servers and cloud orchestration in a single subscription
  • Platform accelerates rollouts, enables hosted VNFs and offers a cost-effective foundation for Layer 3 managed services

Adtran today launched its Ensemble Cloudlet vRouter, a cloud-managed solution that enables providers to deliver high-performance Layer 3 managed services with less cost, complexity and risk. As traditional routers reach end-of-life and core network revenues remain flat, providers are looking to enterprise sites to drive new growth. Delivered through a single subscription, the new solution offers a lower-cost alternative to proprietary appliances while enabling smarter service delivery, faster rollout and improved monetization of enterprise connectivity at the network edge. By replacing locked, single-function routers with a flexible virtualized platform, it gives providers a simpler, more powerful way to modernize their edge infrastructure.

Adtran’s Ensemble Cloudlet vRouter offers service providers a fast and scalable way to monetize enterprise connectivity at the network edge.

Adtran’s Ensemble Cloudlet vRouter offers service providers a fast and scalable way to monetize enterprise connectivity at the network edge.

“The economics of enterprise service delivery are shifting rapidly – and providers can’t afford to stand still,” said Robert Conger, GM of software platforms and strategy at Adtran. “Our new Ensemble Cloudlet vRouter offers an immediate way to modernize services, increase margins and support high-value business customers with greater agility. It delivers the simplicity of a traditional appliance while also bringing the scalability and intelligence of a cloud-native platform. Many providers are stuck managing legacy appliances that are expensive to evaluate, deploy and scale. With this solution, they can break free of those constraints and confidently expand their service capabilities over time.”

Adtran’s Ensemble Cloudlet vRouter combines servers with high-performance virtual routing technology powered by 6WIND, alongside centralized cloud orchestration via Ensemble EdgeView. With native support for 2.5Gbit/s, 10Gbit/s SFP+ and optional 5G wireless, it delivers dynamic Layer 3 routing, VPN, DNS, DHCP, QoS, stateful firewall capabilities and robust IPsec security. The platform offers zero-touch provisioning, remote lifecycle management and cloud-hosted orchestration services for faster time to market and streamlined operations. Providers can scale up from 4-core systems for routing-only use cases to 8-core configurations that support additional virtual network functions and enterprise workloads.

“We’ve designed this platform as more than just a replacement for legacy hardware. It’s a scalable, service-ready foundation that enables our customers to respond to today’s demands while preparing for what’s next,” commented Christoph Glingener, CTO of Adtran. “Ensemble Cloudlet vRouter gives providers the flexibility to tailor deployments to their needs, whether that means delivering a high-bandwidth Layer 3 service or orchestrating more advanced use cases incorporating third-party VNFs. For the first time, they can combine the simplicity of a physical box with the freedom of virtualization, supported by off-the-shelf agility and cloud-native control.”
