CENX introduces utilization management

Enhances capacity planning and Ethernet services visualization.

CENX has unveiled Release 5 of the company’s flagship Service Orchestration software solution, CENX Ethernet Lifecycle Manager.

Release 5 delivers enhanced Utilization Management, which enables network planning teams to use extensive analytics to identify network hot spots and under-utilized capacity, maximize network efficiency, and forecast timing of CAPEX investment.

CENX Ethernet Lifecycle Manager 5 also delivers scalable small cell support, thereby providing a common Service Orchestration solution to support large scale deployments of both microcell and macrocell technologies. With Release 5, service providers can reduce OPEX and defer CAPEX through improved capacity planning, improve the customer experience, and easily support and manage additional Ethernet topologies such as small cell, Ethernet Over SONET and microwave.


CENX Ethernet Lifecycle Manager 5 features new capabilities designed to reduce OPEX, defer CAPEX, and easily support and manage small cells as part of their Ethernet transport services.

The enhanced Utilization Analytics module enables service providers to more effectively manage bandwidth utilization across their network. CENX Ethernet Lifecycle Manager 5 correlates network data and utilization statistics and identifies capacity congestion points at a per-UNI, per-NNI and per Ethernet Virtual Circuit (EVC) basis. It can also identify under-utilized segments of your network, thereby enabling you to more effectively optimize OPEX expenses.

Release 5 brings support for new topologies including small cell, Ethernet Over SONET, and microwave, allowing service providers to manage fault, capacity, and performance in a single end-to-end view across a wider range of Ethernet topology types.

Release 5 features improved vertical scalability to support more than 100,000 microcell and macrocell sites, and enhanced horizontal scalability, thereby providing a future-proof Service Orchestration solution.


CENX Ethernet Lifecycle Manager 5 is expected to be available in Q2 2014.
