Lemko Corporation is pleased to announce the first commercially available 4G Core Network Solution, Node1™. Node1 delivers the all IP, packet-switched solution defined by the industry for next generation mobile networks. The software definable network solution eliminates backhaul, meaning that Node1 provides a complete cellular network at every cell site.
Lemko’s Node1 eliminates backhaul by performing all switching, control, authentication and even billing record creation at each cell site. Its software approach means operators enjoy the benefits of 4G’s fully distributed, low cost approach with 2.5G and 3G RAN today while having an elegant path to supporting 4G LTE RAN in the future. Interconnect is completed across IP facilities, further reducing operational expenses. Mobile broadband-level data volumes are handled efficiently and effectively, unencumbered by expensive, narrow pipes. The result is a solution that delivers high speed data applications and high quality voice at the industry’s lowest total cost point.
“Our simplified network solution is explicitly designed for rural carriers who need to eliminate costly backhaul while delivering high speed data and full-featured voice services,” states Chris White, Vice President, Lemko Corporation. “Node1 is a game changing technology. It is the industry’s least expensive mobile broadband network to own and operate; uniquely overcoming rural America’s space and distance obstacles.”
