Singtel launches network management software

It allows enterprises to add network functions through "white box" testing.

Singtel launched a new network management product, the Singtel Managed Software-Defined Branch (Singtel SD Branch).

According to a press release, it will be available through a "white box" or generic hardware and it will allow enterprises to manage multiple network functions at their existing sites or when they expand into new branches.

Enterprises can also add new functions, such as unified threat management, to the same hardware without incurring additional installation charges.

Singtel SD Branch is integrated with Singtel’s underlay assets of submarine cables, IP VPN network of 428 Points of Presence, and its Global Internet service in more than 200 countries.

"Singtel’s SD network solutions will help enterprises meet their WAN requirements, and employ a consistent and comprehensive unified portal for end-to-end monitoring, analytics, and visibility into all of their networks and application services. Enterprises are also able to provision new services and scale their network bandwidths on demand," Singtel added.
