SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 28, 2023 – IP Infusion, a leading provider of open network software and solutions for wireline and mobile network operators, announced that it had provided technical support for the development of Beluganos*1 — a new network operating system (NOS) for white box solutions*2 to realize NTT Corporation (NTT)'s IOWN*3 concept — and will commence sales and support for global markets on March 31 with the cooperation of NTT and NTT Advanced Technology Corporation (NTT-AT), the core technology company of NTT Group.
Beluganos includes various advanced functions, such as routing and switching capabilities that can replace legacy equipment with a choice of open networking hardware and software solutions, in addition to NTT's commercial network operation expertise. Because of its disaggregated design that separates software functions from hardware, Beluganos reduces operating and capital expenditure costs while simultaneously enabling network innovations for network operators. IP Infusion, a member of IOWN Global Forum, provided technical support for the development of Beluganos and will scale the IOWN concept around the world through global sales of Beluganos.
"We are incredibly proud to support NTT in the development, go-to-market and distribution of Beluganos," said Atsushi Ogata, CEO and President of IP Infusion. "This project demonstrates our ongoing commitment to fostering broad access and high quality software solutions that further innovation and lower total cost of ownership."
