Universal CPE (uCPE)

uCPE solutions enable the replacement of multiple disconnected, expensive and usually proprietary pieces of equipment providing network functions – routing, firewall, VPN, NAT, access control, policy management, etc. – with a single, general purpose hardware platform that can be easily upgraded and more cost effectively. Depending on specific requirements, uCPE can be a relatively simple Ethernet device with applications such as firewall, VPN, VoIP, etc. moved to the cloud.

Enabling the efficient roll out of new services

uCPE from Iricent allows enterprises to instantly deploy on-demand Virtual Network Functions (VNF) at their various premises, simplifying their operations and allowing for the efficient delivery of new services. And by separating hardware from software, Iricent’s cloud-managed uCPE enables a completely programmable network that dramatically speeds up service creation, activation and assurance.
