Next Generation Network, or NGN,  is an emerging trend that reflects important progress in the way businesses design and deploy networks. Unfortunately, its complexity may discourage companies from exploring its potential benefits. In our new white paper, “Next Generation Networking Solution Dimensions,” we provide a thorough overview of this exciting technology. Divided into 4 installments, this white paper will help you learn how innovations in network solutions can improve your business’s performance.

Next Generation Network offers businesses greater reliability and security by incorporating the latest advancements in virtualized network functions. Gartner defines NGN as “the evolution and migration of fixed and mobile network infrastructures from distinct, proprietary networks to converged networks based on IP.” By using Software-Defined Wide Area Networks (SD-WAN) and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) to improve network management and operations, NGN supplies an attractive balance of performance, flexibility, stability, ease of use, and security.

In Part I of our white paper, we cover four key network considerations pertaining to NGN: physical transport, customer-premises hardware, SD-WAN platforms, and Virtual Network Functions (VNFs). Over the course of our discussion, we evaluate the differences between wireless and wireline transport, site-level hardware such as white and black boxes, SD-WAN architectures, and virtual functions and cloud-based applications and platforms. Weighing the impact of these factors will aid your business in deciding whether NGN is the right choice for your goals and will steer you towards the best providers of this advanced technology.
