IP Infusion has formed a strategic partnership with NTT DATA, a global digital business and IT services leader headquartered in Tokyo that offers consulting, industry solutions, business process services, IT modernisation, and managed services. NTT DATA and IP Infusion are collaborating for go-to-market open networking solutions to bring enhanced disaggregation, scalability, and choices to network operators.
Through this partnership, both companies will offer products based on network disaggregation solutions, which allows the vendor to simplify complex networks with open standards, reducing operating costs while enabling a better ecosystem and leveraging automation to reduce time-to-market and new services introduction.
This collaboration for expanding broad connectivity was initiated by the Telecom Infra Project (TIP), including TIP solutions for Disaggregated Cell Site Gateways (DCSG) or Cell Site Routers and Cassini for Routed Optical Networking projects. Both NTT DATA and IP Infusion are members of TIP, which is driving development and deployment of open, disaggregated, and standards-based technology solutions to advance global connectivity.
“We are deeply committed to accelerating network disaggregation throughout our global ecosystem of customers and partners,” said Teodoro López, Head of Telco at NTT DATA. “IP Infusion is a proven leader in open networking, providing award-winning and field-tested solutions that reduce total cost of ownership while expanding services. We are thrilled to contribute to advancing innovation, expanding access, and enhancing network outcomes for a broader audience.”
“The systems integrator role is critical for the TIP community, and the IP Infusion and NTT DATA alliance is a big step forward for bringing disaggregated solutions to a diverse range of use cases,” said Kristian Toivo, Executive Director of Telecom Infra Project. “NTT DATA is one of the world’s largest systems integrators, and IP Infusion has long demonstrated deep expertise in open network solutions. Their collaboration will help create a stronger, more flexible supply chain and support high-quality connectivity for a sound digital future.”
“We are pleased to partner with NTT DATA to drive further market penetration for open networking,” said Atsushi Ogata, President and CEO of IP Infusion. “It’s great to be working with NTT DATA, a trusted global innovator for business IT solutions, which clearly understands the powerful potential of network disaggregation. We are proud to be furthering TIP’s ideals for expanding open networks and paving the way for a connected future.”
In addition, TIP recognised IP Infusion’s Disaggregated Cell Site Gateway (DCSG) solution with the TIP Validated Solution Gold Badge in 2022. IP Infusion’s software was recognised for satisfying the stringent requirements set by the TIP Open Optical Packet Transport Project (OOPT) group for the DCSG.
