Volta Networks today announced its full support for the Disaggregated Cell Site Gateway (DCSG), an open approach to build out 5G transport networks. The requirements were created by the Telecom Infra Project’s (TIP) Open Optical & Packet Transport (OOPT) project group and has gained significant traction in the telecommunications and networking industries. DCSG is critical to the development and deployment of 5G technology on a global scale and enables a series of technical features and new services. Volta’s solution is fully tested, DCSG compliant, and generally available now for customer deployments.

Volta Networks has been named a winner in Light Reading’s Leading Lights Awards 2020 for Most Innovative Telco Cloud Product Strategy (Vendor) for the Volta Elastic Virtual Routing Engine. The winners of the Leading Lights Awards, the telecom industry’s most prestigious awards program, were announced on August 21 in a special online ceremony.

Virtualization and the cloud have redefined computing and are key elements in the transformation of the service edge. 5G deployment is driving changes in the service edge, ushering in dramatically more cell sites and delivering 10 times or more bandwidth per user. 5G also enables a broad range of new applications from IoT to smart cities to manufacturing over an increasingly converged network.

Join Jennifer Clark, Principal Analyst – Cloud Infrastructure and Edge Computing, Heavy Reading, and Volta as we look at the emerging application requirements and how the network and infrastructure can be implemented to support them. We will use MEC as a use case and consider the role of traditional cloud vendors and how that will impact MNOs. Finally, we look at the options to virtualize network functions and their impact on performance and cost.
