Cisco powers Telefonica Spain’s LTE In A Box to build private LTE networks

Cisco today revealed that Telefonica Spain has initiated a LTE In A Box project that assists to build and manage private LTE Networks.

Cisco said LTE In A Box is based on the Cisco Premium Mobile Broadband (PMB) architecture and Virtual Packet Core (VPC) platform. LTE In a Box is a small-footprint, all-IP mobile broadband mobility solution suited to enterprises with specific coverage, performance or control requirements beyond the capabilities of public LTE networks.
