Sprint Networks- Bmobile SD-WAN

What is SD-WAN?

A Software-defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) is a virtual WAN architecture that allows enterprises to leverage any combination of transport services – including Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), LTE and broadband internet services – to securely connect users to applications.

SD-WAN uses a centralised control function to securely and intelligently direct traffic across the WAN. This increases application performance, resulting in enhanced user experience, increased business productivity and reduced costs for IT.

SD-WAN For Digital Transformation

Intelligent traffic forwarding : SD-WAN enables application-based traffic forwarding as well as Quality of Service (QoS) assurance, which is a prerequisite for Digital networking.
Simplicity at enterprise scale : Centralise cloud management to make it easy to deploy SD-WAN with security while maintaining policy across thousands of sites.
Transport independent secure fabric : SD-WAN’s creates an overlay fabric which is transport agnostic over different transport technologies such as cable, optical, and LTE.
ZTP (Zero Touch Provisioning) : Customers have the ability to provision and on-board branches with no human intervention. Simply Plug n Play.
Multi-link and Multi-path Loadbalancing : SD-WAN makes creating a secure WAN over either cheap Internet, 4G/5G or traditional WAN technologies a reality. Additionally, it’s ability to load-balance over these WAN technologies allows network administrators to choose the appropriate technology and transport based on the budget available for the network as part of the digital transformation road-map.
Right security, right place : Protect users, devices, and applications by deploying embedded or cloud security faster with the best threat intelligence.
Deep Application Level Visibility : See how your top priority apps are performing at any given time. See packet loss, Jitter and Latency on your WAN circuits.
Save on OPEX : With the 7 reasons above customers can significantly reduce their operational expense in device activation and maintenance.

Why You Should Care About SD-WAN In PNG?

More than 50% of IT budgets are spent on service providers, hoping it will improve branch up-time and overall link performances. So, enterprises in PNG use two service providers. But, these enterprises never get to use both service provider links simultaneously due to the lack in technology within their networks, resulting in losing money. This is no longer the case – thanks to Sprint Networks’ SD-WAN solution!
