BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Mobile
World Congress -- Ruckus Wireless, a part of Brocade, today
announced a collaboration with Amdocs, a leading provider of
software and services to communications and media companies, to
deliver a customizable, managed cloud Wi-Fi service to service
providers. Ruckus Service Provider (SP) Cloud leverages
industry-leading access points (APs) and a cloud-managed,
virtualized software platform to deliver a vertically integrated
Wi-Fi and LTE offering to service providers, fully managed by
Amdocs. The joint offering will enable service providers to deliver
Wi-Fi and LTE as managed services either as an enhancement to their
current solutions or as new wireless managed services to their
business customers.
"Collaborating with Amdocs, which has been delivering managed
services to communications and media service providers for more
than 30 years—including some of the largest in the world—further
contributes to our growth in market share for service provider
Wi-Fi," said Dan Rabinovitsj, chief
operating officer, Ruckus Wireless Business Unit, Brocade. "At
Ruckus, we're committed to delivering advanced solutions to our
customers that provide flexibility and customization, and Amdocs
helps us continue that effort. We are thrilled to work with Amdocs
to further our efforts in enabling service providers with Wi-Fi and
LTE solutions."
By deploying the Ruckus SP Cloud solution through Amdocs,
service providers can now control offerings through the cloud of
their choice, while staying true to their personal branding. With
this fully managed service offering, service providers can minimize
their internal R&D investment, operational expenses, and
ongoing lifecycle management to quickly bring differentiated
solutions to market. Service providers can customize this managed
services offering for their unique needs, whether that means
installing it in the cloud of their choice or integrating it with a
variety of management systems and support packages.
"By collaborating with Ruckus Wireless, we're able to offer
service providers a level of differentiation and control of their
wireless LAN offerings that they likely haven't had before," said
Eric Updyke, group president, System
Integration and Operations, Amdocs. "We're excited about this
partnership and grateful for the opportunity to provide service
providers with the ability expand and diversify their market
reach."
During Mobile World Congress this week, Ruckus and Amdocs will
be showcasing the joint offering in Hall 2, Suite 2G29 at the Fira
Gran Via in Barcelona, from
February 27 to March 2, 2017. To
