Magyar Telekom, a leading telecom service provider in Hungary, has selected Mavenir to deploy a cloud-native containerized Converged Packet Core.

Magyar Telekom, a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, will use Deutsche Telekom’s locally deployed private cloud solution. Mavenir’s containerized converged packet core will lay the foundation for deploying new enterprise applications and services, taking advantage of 5G features such as low latency and network slicing.

Laszlo Boka, Platform and Core Services Tribe Lead at Magyar Telekom said: “It was important for us to partner with a software provider that could deliver on three main fronts: a Converged Packet Core to support all access technology integration from 2G to 5G, an open architecture that could run on our specified hardware and software platforms, and seamless integration with third-party network functions.”
