Features and Benefits
Network in a Box®
Network in a Box® (NIB) solutions provide easy-to-use, rapidly deployable communications, addressing the need for mission critical, turnkey network coverage in the field.
iCore® Network in a Box®
Tecore’s iCore® Network in a Box®(NIB) is a robust all-in-one, portable integrated hardware and software box which is capable of supporting an LTE Core Network, IMS-Core in addition to an eNodeB and Remote Radio Head (RRH). Providing highly operational availability through continued LTE coverage in a small, compact, portable form factor to meet critical public safety needs when backhaul connection to the Macro EPC is lost. A number of broad deployment scenarios include extreme disaster, special rescue missions, emergency management, armed forces, peace keeping missions and mobile communications networks in transit.
The iCore® NIB® provides voice, text, video and packet data services through standards based network elements developed to relevant 3GPP standards. Residing in the iCore® NIB® are Virtual Machines (VM) that include Network Core, IMS-Core, Base Band Unit (BBU) and Remote Radio Head (RRH) elements. This nodal component of the Evolved UMTS Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) provides a seamless LTE network solution. These enhanced integrated techniques translate into better quality of service and higher bit rates for packet data-intensive applications in addition to being lighter in weight. With this flexible architecture supporting network functions virtualization, the iCore® NIB® can be deployed quickly to meet the operator’s requirements in broad deployment scenarios.
IOPS Network in a Box®
Isolated Operations for Public Safety (IOPS) capabilities has been defined by the larger wireless community to specifically address the operational requirements and configurations of tactical LTE systems for public safety. As a compliant system, Tecore’s IOPS Network in a Box® (NIB) allows for the rapid deployment of LTE services capabilities to an impacted area. The all-in-one, transportable and ready-in-minutes network solutions capable of supporting an LTE Core Network IMS-Core in addition to an eNodeB and 2×20 watt integrated Remote Radio Head (RRH). By delivering multiple access technologies and streamlining the network through an IP-based architecture, it provides responders with the most compact, adaptable, and cost-effective platform for rapidly deploying. This new breed of Cell on Wheels (COW) or Mobile Cell Site is optimized for the LTE environment and can be adapted for integrated, mesh or standalone communications.
Residing in the IOPS NIB® are Virtual Machines (VM) that can be integrated with Tecore’s Base Band Unit (BBU). This nodal component of the e-UTRAN provides a seamless LTE network solution. These enhanced techniques translate into better quality of service and higher bit rates for packet data-intensive applications. With a flexible architecture supporting network function virtualization and scalability from fewer than 100 to tens of thousands of mobile subscribers, the IOPS NIB® can be deployed quickly to meet the customer requirements in multiple deployment scenarios.
