NGMN Urges Standardization for Monitoring Energy in Virtualized Networks
NGMN’s latest report highlights the need for industry-standard measures to track energy consumption in virtualized mobile networks. While current standards cover traditional RAN equipment well, they lag in addressing the complexities of virtualized and cloud-native functions. MNOs are increasingly focused on sustainability, with real-time energy monitoring seen as essential for reducing carbon emissions. The report suggests leveraging the Redfish standard and open-source tools like Kepler and Prometheus for precise, network-wide energy usage data. NGMN calls for improvements in 3GPP’s frameworks to accurately reflect VNF/CNF energy performance, emphasizing the importance of standardisation in advancing green network initiatives.
Casa Systems Sells Business Units Amid Telecom Sector Decline
Casa Systems, a US telecoms vendor, is selling its Axyom business to Lumine Group and its cable interests to Vecima Networks due to a downturn in capital spending. Axyom specializes in cloud-native 5G core software and RAN. Lumine Group is acquiring Axyom in a fire-sale facilitated by Casa’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing. Vecima Networks has made a $20 million bid for Casa’s cable assets. Casa’s CEO, Michael Glickman, attributes the need to sell to industry-wide investment declines. This sale aims to maximize value, preserve jobs, and minimize customer disruption. Despite challenges, Casa’s business units may find new opportunities in the changing telecom landscape.
