The solution performed successfully in the deployment and management of virtual network functions and was able to handle high traffic requirements. This solution enables network operators to benefit from a high-performing network with lower energy consumption, operating costs and emissions. Telco Systems continues to work closely with Arm and Vodafone as they prepare for the next step in the process.\n \n \n \n \n \n The Group's NFVTime operating system is integrated with Arm technology to be used on Arm-based uCPE related SoCs (system-on-a-chip). This \n solution, jointly developed by BATM and Arm, \n enables network carriers to deploy their own virtualised networks, \n which can also be a key element in allowing them to leverage the benefits offered by 5G....
