T‑Mobile and Cisco launch world’s largest cloud native converged core gateway

T-Mobile has teamed up with Cisco to launch the world’s largest highly scalable and distributed nationwide cloud native converged core gateway.

The Un-carrier has moved all its 5G and 4G traffic to the new cloud native core gateway, which immediately boosted performance for customers with more than a 10% improvement in both speed and latency.

The new converged core gateway also simplifies operations for T-Mobile, allowing the Un-carrier to shift resources with better agility and roll out services like 5G Home Internet. It will also expedite time to market for new 5G and IoT services like network slicing and Voice over 5G (VoNR) by allowing T-Mobile to easily test and deploy new capabilities at scale.  

“T-Mobile customers already have access to the largest, most powerful 5G network in the country, this cloud native core gateway takes our network to new heights, allowing us to push 5G forward by delivering next-level performance for consumers and businesses nationwide while setting the stage for new applications enabled by next-gen networks,” said Delan Beah, Senior Vice President of Core Network and Services Engineering at T-Mobile.

With a fully automated converged core gateway, T-Mobile can simplify network functions across the cloud, edge and data centers to significantly reduce operational life cycle management.
