Editor's Notes

  • #4 This page is about Smart Factory
  • #9 Case I
  • #10 Case I
  • #11 Case II
  • #12 [ben]: change title to “Carrier Grade HW Platform Mgmt Solution” because I think on the sw level 5G cares more about vRAN and vEPC, and network management solution (such as Wave-In’s XiNOS). BMC is the most basic stuff in any server platform…what we can say about our own software is our BMC which is designed to be more roboust (carrier grade) http://www.wavein.com.tw/xinos.html Advantech Platform Management Software (IPMI Core) Advantech’s in-house IPMI implementation, fully owned Advantech IP Built from ground up for modularity and stability Supporting multiple architectures with single code base Mature – first deployment in 2008 Interoperation tested Extensive customization options Several licensing options available Regular security update
  • #13 [ben]: suggest to change to “the best x86 platforms for 5G network solutions” because we can only offer x86 platforms there are other HW platforms for 5G such as switches, radio interface units, amplifiers & antennas that we can not offer and have to work with our partners to create, for example, a turnkey solution for “private 5G mobile network infrastructure” for enterprises.
