ZTE participates in EANTC’s interoperability test

11 April 201 8 , Shenzhen, China - ZTE Corporation (0763.HK / 000063.SZ), a major international provider of telecommunications, enterprise and consumer technology solutions for the Mobile Internet, today announced that its data products have participated in the public multi-vendor interoperability test organized by the European Advanced Networking Test Center (EANTC).

The multi-vendor interoperability test held by EANTC aims to verify the capabilities of the vendors’ equipment in supporting the advances in EVPN, SDN, and PCEP features.

The test results are released at the MPLS+SDN + NFV World Congress 2018 on April 10^th in Paris, France. The test results show that ZTE data products feature excellent interoperability and are capable of providing the effective and pragmatic SDN solution to address the traffic optimization and traffic scheduling demands in the operators’ existing networks and data centers.

ZTE core routers as well as SDN WAN controllers including ZXR10 T8000-18, ZXR10 M6000-18S, ZXR10 M6000-8S PLUS, ZXR10 M6000-5S, ZXR10 M6000-3S, and ZENIC WAN Controller participated in the test, successfully connecting with equipment from multiple vendors in EVPN, BGP-LS, and PCEP.

In terms of SDN, ZTE routers worked as PCC and its SDN WAN controller worked as PCE, interconnecting with equipment from other vendors. They can collect link status, implement new path algorithm, distribute new paths, and realize traffic optimization especially when the network topology is changing.

”We highly appreciate ZTE’s active participation in many of this year’s multi-vendor interoperability test areas, specifically in SDN/PCEP/EVPN. The successful results underline ZTE’s focus to provide operators with excellent equipment and advanced solutions.” said Mr. Carsten Rossenhovel, Managing Director at EANTC.

”With decades of experience in data products Research & Development, ZTE has a large number of outstanding talents and great technical strength.” said Mr. Hu Longbin, VP of Bearer Network Product Line at ZTE.”In the future, we will increase our R&D investment, aiming to lead the transport network innovation, play an active part in the fields of high-end router, SDN/NFV, and provide our customers all around the world with quality services.”
