Functional area | Feature description | Summary of benefits |
VxRail Management Cluster | VxRail Manager manages the complete solution deployment | VxRail management cluster deployed to manage and orchestrate all edge side satellite nodes. All the edge site servers and virtual machines can be managed from one interface. |
VxRail Dynamic/Satellite Node | VxRail satellite nodes act as the edge nodes. | VxRail satellite nodes at the edge are managed and controlled from the centralized VxRail management cluster. The complete lifecycle management can be performed from the central VxRail manager. |
Expeto xCore-Private Network | Expeto xCore serves as the 4G EPC. | Expeto xCore is directly deployed on the VxRail satellite nodes at the edge to serve as the private network. |
Expeto xControl | Expeto xControl controls and configures the multiple site xCores | Expeto xControl is a cloud-based application accessed through a web browser GUI or through REST API calls. It is a multi-tenant control plane for SIM management, networking, security, and routing of all devices and data across private and public mobile networks worldwide. |
Expeto xRouter and xCore-Public Network | Expeto xRouter acts as a home network receiving traffic from the mobile network and securely tunnels the traffic to the xCore sites for the public or hybrid network. | Enables seamless roaming of subscribers between segmented systems. Users can move between private to public networks using the same single Expeto SIM. This helps to connect to the private network even while roaming on a public network. |
Airspan 4G eNodeB | Airspan Private LTE band and CBRS band 4G eNodeB | The Airspan indoor radios—AirVelocity 1200 4G and Air Velocity 1500 CBRS (B48)—have been validated at the edge. Private LTE Band (band 2/3) and 4G CBRS (band N48) connectivity services at the edge are enabled via Expeto LTE xCore deployed to the edge node and Airspan's ACP EMS. E2E validation between 4G CBRS/private band supported UEs and the Expeto xCore with Airspan AV1200/AV1500 has been done as part of Dell Private Wireless. As a next step, we will include the outdoor radios AirSpeed 1035 (B40, B42, B43) and AS1030 CBRS (B48) to provide a full 4G and CBRS indoor and outdoor portfolio. |
VMware Velocloud SD-WAN | SD-WAN/SASE application provides security between the central management cluster and the edge nodes. | Enables security and link control between the edge nodes and the central VxRail management cluster. |
