Oct. 22, 2009 (Business Wire) -- RadiSys® Corporation (NASDAQ:RSYS), a leading global provider of advanced embedded solutions, today announced that it has partnered with Aricent and 6WIND to deliver application-ready platforms for the Long Term Evolution (LTE) Evolved Packet Core (EPC). Data traffic and mobile video usage are growing at a rapid pace, and Service Providers are demanding quick delivery of next-generation networks to satisfy ever-increasing consumer demand. Telecom Equipment Manufacturers (TEMs), in turn, are seeking solutions that enable shorter internal development cycles to deliver upon the time-to-market pressures they are facing. Pre-packaged network frameworks for building end deployable nodes provide TEMs with substantial savings in both time and cost for deployment. Through collaboration with Aricent and 6WIND, RadiSys can deliver its market-proven ATCA Promentum platform, a comprehensive LTE signaling stack and efficient data path software in one, fully integrated solution that lowers development risk for TEMs and reduces time-to-market by as much as 18 months.

“As the industry’s first 10G platform, RadiSys has now delivered more than 35 different applications for our customers,” said Anthony Ambrose, Vice President and General Manager, Communications Networks, RadiSys. “In order to provide TEMs looking to enter the LTE market with an even greater time-to-market advantage, we’ve partnered with Aricent and 6WIND to deliver the industry’s first LTE-ready platform that can reduce deployment time by 50 percent.”

RadiSys’ partnership with Aricent and 6WIND brings together the benefits of scalability, high availability and ease of use along with the cutting-edge performance of one of the broadest portfolios of ATCA building blocks in the industry. This pre-packaged platform solution combines RadiSys’ best-in-class ATCA hardware with 6WIND’s Datapath software (6WINDGate™) and Aricent’s LTE stack framework. Aricent’s LTE EPC software frameworks are complete, pre-integrated control plane software modules suitable for LTE Macro/Micro EPC nodes, supporting essential Serving Gateway, Packet Gateway and Mobility Management Entity capabilities. The addition of the 6WIND Datapath creates a complete stack for packet processing. 6WIND's flagship software is ideally suited for LTE high performance equipment. It provides a complete L2-L4 packet processing engine based on Fast Path, a data plane specifically optimized to benefit from multicore performance.

RadiSys has already leveraged the strengths of its ecosystem partners to provide a pre-integrated ATCA platform.
