Italtel\u2019s Netwrapper application, utilizing Cisco\u2019s APIC-EM Enterprise SDN Controller, allows smart allocation of network resources according to applications\u2019 requirements.<\/em><\/p>\n

Dynamic Admission Control is the first Italtel solution that employs Netwrapper to assure quality of experience for multi-technology UC&C services.<\/em><\/p>\n

Italtel, a leading company in Network Function Virtualization (NFV), Managed Services and All-IP communication, today announced Netwrapper \u2013 its first Software-Defined Networking (SDN) application that \u201cwraps\u201d network and services (applications), enabling a fruitful harmonization between them.<\/p>\n

Built on top of Cisco\u2019s Application Centric Infrastructure Controller Enterprise Module (APIC-EM), Italtel\u2019s Netwrapper understands each service\u2019s need for bandwidth and determines the right allocation of network resources in order to offer users the best quality of experience (QoE).<\/p>\n

The new Italtel application will be released in Q2 2016 as the \u201cpolicy engine\u201d of Italtel\u2019s Dynamic Admission Control solution: admission control policies of the multi-technology Unified Communication and Collaboration (UC&C) applications are now centralized and dynamically managed by Netwrapper, which interacts with the IP network (through Cisco APIC-EM controller) on one side and with IP-PBXs on the other side.<\/p>\n

Cisco Unified Call Manager (CUCM) and Microsoft Skype for Business are among the first IP voice and video applications that will benefit from QoE improvements via Netwrapper.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very excited to announce Netwrapper. This powerful application ratifies Italtel\u2019s entrance in the SDN Enterprise market,\u201d says Camillo Ascione, Head of System Integration Strategy & Marketing at Italtel. \u201cOur system is based on very refined algorithms, built thanks to our strong system integration capabilities. We have also developed a very smart data model suitable to address many other Enterprises\u2019 needs using an SDN approach.\u201d<\/p>\n

Phil Casini, Director of Product Management for Enterprise Networking at Cisco says: \u201cNetwrapper is another example of the collaboration with our ecosystem partners we are supporting to deliver high impact applications for APIC EM. By tapping its expertise in telecommunications to build this solution, Italtel is also demonstrating that our partners can utilize their core strengths and expertise to take advantage of Cisco\u2019s business intent focused SDN approach and build new business models for their practices. Enabling dynamic and centralized network control according to applications\u2019 requirements allows Italtel to advance voice and video communications over IP networks for their customers in a very big way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Netwrapper is the outcome of the strong cooperation between Italtel and Cisco<\/a> and is presented at the Italtel booth<\/a> at Cisco Live!\u2122. (More)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
