VeEX announced a strategic partnership with Ubisense to integrate the two companies' software product lines to deliver a real-time view of the status of a customer's physical network assets.
The two companies are collaborating to integrate and make their VeSion and myWorld products and software services interoperable. VeSion integrates VeEX's RF Ingress, RF sweep, DOCSIS/PNM, Ethernet and fiber monitoring systems including its workflow and asset management software under a single cloud-based platform. Running on a range of mobile devices, the Ubisense myWorld software is designed to accelerate network operations performance by improving data quality and consistency between applications and field operations. myWorld creates a geo operations hub that provides a network view that complements the VeEX solutions by giving field tech engineers and designers the geospatial context they need to make informed decisions.
"Both cable and telco service providers are making significant capital investments in next-generation networks with aggressive time pressure and fixed budgets hampering roll-outs," said Cyrille Morelle, president and CEO at VeEX. "These companies are quickly discovering that their existing test tools and software processes do not scale efficiently to meet these objectives. Aligning our specialized test probes with Ubisense's myWorld ensures our customers have complete network visibility, plus it reduces unnecessary truck rolls by alerting key personnel to alarm conditions with precise location."
"Service providers and Infrastructure companies operate in a complex, distributed environment with many field assets and real-time sensors," said Richard Petti, CEO at Ubisense. "Our new partnership is very exciting because myWorld gives customers a geospatial map to understand the health of their network using VeEX test probes to predict and prevent outages before they occur. Engineers and designers can now see how and where network assets are impacting performance in order to take prompt and efficient action. Our new VeEX partnership demonstrates our technology-agnostic strategy of supporting best-in-class IIOT devices. It's a great example of how we can bring game-changing benefits to customers using our myWorld software to accelerate their network operations."
Both companies are exhibiting at SCTE/ISBE Cable-Tec Expo 2018 in Atlanta.
