BATM Advanced Communications Limited (LON:BVC) said its Telco Systems subsidiary has launched a new suite of networking systems under the Edgility brand.
Edgility is Telco Systems’ name for a range of networking products and services based on its network function virtualisation (NFV) technology.
The first product off the launch-pad is a Fast SD-WAN (software defined wide area network) and firewall that provides secure network connectivity for the small office and home office (SOHO) market.
The group is targeting the package at telecoms service providers and distributors to the SOHO market. By adopting Edgility Fast SD-WAN & Firewall, they will be able to offer their enterprise customers a secure access service edge (SASE) solution that is low cost and quick to provide thereby reducing the time to return on investment, BATM said.
The Edgility Fast SD-WAN & Firewall comprises a small, rugged device that comes with Telco Systems’ Edgility operating system built in and integrated with an SD-WAN and class A firewall from Swedish cybersecurity specialist, Clavister.
BATM explained that the devices can be deployed at the central office and at branch offices or employee homes thus providing the remote locations with the same level of security and connectivity as the central office at the core.
“’'Edgility' reflects our focus on driving innovation at the network edge, which is underpinned by our network function virtualisation technology. With the increasing digitalisation of business and emergence of widespread hybrid working, there is growing demand for Edge compute solutions and a significant opportunity to establish an early-mover foothold in this nascent market,” said Zvi Marom, the chief executive officer of BATM.
“Our Fast SD-WAN & Firewall package has been launched to target this opportunity with what we believe is a unique ability to provide secure connectivity at a comparatively low cost and with a simple set up. We believe there is great potential for this offering, which also expands our NFV activities,” he added.
