A network slicing is a logical network serving a defined business purpose or customer, consisting of all required network resources configured together. It is created, changed and removed by management functions.
Recently, a new network N3IWF independently developed by IPLOOK has been released. The success of N3IWF represents that IPLOOK 5G Core Network(5GC) not only supports 3GPP access network, but also supports Non-3GPP access network.
IPLOOK has become a member of TIP Open Core Network. The TIP Open Core Network group is working to develop an open, cloud-native, and converged core that is a collection of microservices implementing various core network functions.
IPLOOK provides EPC for CBRS. The NFV core network software will be deployed on X86 COTS . It supports all eNodeB vendors openly . Meanwhile, the IPLOOK EPC enables APIs for provisioning and billing. That helps WISPs to enhance operation abilities.
Being a member of TIP, IPLOOK focuses on developing a cloud-native and converged core network, running on standardized software and supporting 3G, 4G, 5G technologies.
