Casa uniquely addresses the challenges of this new era, bringing its proven, decade-long expertise delivering tier one cable access technologies to its new ultra-broadband edge platform and small cell solutions.

Casa Systems' Axyom ultra-broadband edge platform is a virtualized multi-access solution for 3G/4G and trusted/untrusted Wi-Fi access. All of the access and core network functions service providers need to enable a variety of ultra-broadband mobile and Wi-Fi services are available in the Axyom software platform. 

Deployable on-premise, at the network edge or at a centralized location, Axyom features a suite of virtual network functions designed to help providers simplify their access networks with a single software platform that provides security, management tools and the ability to provide end users with the highest quality experience. Based on open source technology, the Axyom platform is engineered for multi-dimensional optimization and leverages the Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) and Intel® QuickAssist Technology resulting in dramatic performance gains.

Casa's new small cell solution integrates 3G and LTE access with virtualized security and HNB/HeNB gateways, SON, HMS/HeMS and backhaul to deliver a high performance, highly secure heterogeneous network. Easily integrated with existing small cell and macro networks, this new approach to mobile edge computing creates multi-dimensional scaling with superior throughput, delivering the coverage and capacity service providers need today while providing a number of monetization opportunities.
