US-based network software provider Mavenir has announced its selection by Bermudan start-up Paradise Mobile to provide a cloud-native solution for its new 4G/5G network. The mobile network operator (MNO) is a recently established cloud-native Communications Service Provider (CSP) that is aiming to carve out a niche in the Bermudan telecoms market. The Mavenir-supplied solution includes Converged Packet Core, BSS, Open vRAN and OpenBeam Radios, improving both bandwidth and latency for users, and ‘enabling a multitude of new products and services, addressing some of the biggest service challenges for the island’. The MNO is building its Open vRAN network from the ground up with Co-Founder and CEO, Sam Tabbara, noting: ‘Paradise Mobile is delighted to be working with Mavenir to build a transformative network and world class customer experience. We look forward to bringing cutting-edge technology and experiences, real consumer choice, and competition when we launch in Bermuda in 2023. The partnership between Paradise Mobile and Mavenir in Bermuda is the first announcement in a series of network modernisations planned across other islands.’
