Introduction of DCSG family by UfiSpace

UfiSpace introduced its new disaggregated cell site gateways (DCSG) for the most comprehensive offering in the industry till now. UfiSpace is a primary provider of disaggregated open networking platforms. DCSG family by UfiSpace is leading the path for the next generation of 5G open network solutions. Also, it offers service providers low to high-capacity options to meet a variety of applications.

Addition of new models

New models are being added that are using Broadcom’s Qumran-UX chip include S9501-28SMT and S9501-18SMT. This allows UfiSpace’s DCSGs to be applied in lower capacity scenarios supporting 100M to 10GE port speeds while consuming less power, making them suitable for rural deployments.

The models mentioned above complement UfiSpace’s higher capacity DCSGs. S9500-30XS and S9500-22XST support 100G backhauls and have been deployed in significant carrier networks worldwide.

DCSG product added to OCP and TIP

UfiSpace’s DCSG product family will be added to both the Open Compute Project (OCP) and Telecom Infra Project (TIP). Being the key innovator within the open networking ecosystem, UfiSpace is teaming up with world-recognized software merchants to combine their solutions with their DCSG platforms.

With the expansion of the DCSG product family offering economical options, UfiSpace plans to offer open disaggregated solutions to an even broader range of service providers.
