Portwell, Inc., a world-leading innovator in the Industrial PC (IPC) and embedded computing solutions, and an Associate member of the InteI^® Internet of Things Solutions (IoT) Alliance, today announced the latest and groundbreaking solution of SD-WAN (Software-defined Wide Area Network) / NFV (Network Function Virtualization), called ANS-8A64P (Advanced Network Solutions). The compact design and rich connections provide customer a sufficient data communication in branches as well as in Data Center.

To fulfill end applications needed, main achievements will be network security optimization, overall connectivity improvement and MPLS/overall cost reduction. Portwell offers ANS series, the SD-WAN solution with high computing power, various bandwidth options and cost effective design, to resolve those pain points.

In the coming wireless world, 5G, IoT, Wi-Fi 6, and LPWAN will be trending topics with high demand, and Portwell’s SD-WAN solutions will be a door opener to enter this world. To put it another way, the reserved areas on board for 5G modules and PoE (Power Over Ethernet) are completely ready to be deployed to a wide range of applications.

Why do you need SD-WAN? The ANSwer is self-evident.

• Security: That built-in Intel Denverton platform (4C/8C) supports Intel QAT, DPDK and Open vSwitch provides you high security with encryption/decryption functionality.
• Data Communication: Maximum 12 ports GbE (Gigabit Ethernet) in wire speed and 2 ports SFP+ 10GbE are supported to satisfy the need for up/downstream channels.
• Edge Computing: Up to 12 ports PoE/PoE+ with API supported allow users to connect power-required devices (PD) such as IP/AI camera and other controllers to explore wider scene of application as in Factory, Office, Data Center, etc.

SD-WAN is a burgeoning market. With 27-year Industrial experience and a plentiful of knowledge in different market segments, Portwell is confident to bring you robust and competitive solutions to help your customers build their network system and achieve prosperity.

“Not only focusing on home offices, but targeting in multiple areas like Networking, and Edge Computing will bring numerous opportunities in future market.”
