Ethernity Networks releases new 5G routing equipment

Beijing, China - October 13, 2021 - Ethernity Networks, a leading provider of programmable hardware data processing offload solutions that accelerate telecom/cloud networks, announced the launch of the programmable UEP-60 Universal Edge Platform 5G router, positioned as the best wireless backhaul indoor/outdoor unit. It provides up to 60Gbps of network capacity and virtually unlimited protocol and port configuration flexibility.

UEP-60 is a solution for network edge infrastructure. It is designed for 5G networks and is used in wireless backhaul indoor/outdoor units with integrated Layer 1 bonding, fronthaul gateways, small cell aggregation or cell gateways.

The device uses an FPGA SoC to handle the data path and is equipped with a quad-core ARM processor to run the control protocol stack. By combining this control function with 1G and 10G ports, the UEP-60 is ideally suited as a switch/router network device for aggregating and dividing WAN and LAN networks. In addition, the FPGA also supports full routing functions and security through additional components, saving space and cost in network edge devices.

The highlight of UEP-60 is that it can be fully customized for specific purposes in the network. Both the hardware configuration and the FPGA can be customized to meet various requirements while achieving the highest performance in a compact and economical device.

“The UEP-60 brings a variety of value-added features, from standard routing functions to our patented L1 wireless bonding, fronthaul interfaces and other unmatched capabilities not available in bare metal base station routers,” said Oded Bergman, Vice President of Product and Business Development at Ethernity. “More importantly, the programmability provided by the UEP-60 provides unprecedented flexibility, which makes the device future-proof and meets the needs of emerging markets.”
