Platform Offers Flexibility and Cost-Effective Growth Across Smart Building Offerings

RICHARDSON, Texas and TORONTO, Canada – June 8, 2023 - HFR Networks, leading the industry with intelligent xHaul RAN Transport and Edge Access solutions, and Andorix, a smart building enabler and system integrator, today announced Andorix has deployed HFR Networks’ flexiHaul M6424 time sensitive networking (TSN) platform. This converged platform is being used to deliver wholesale in-building managed services including; consumer broadband, enterprise services, and RAN transport for MNOs and private wireless network services.

The flexiHaul M6424 Packet TSN Switch with embedded vOLT pluggable modules supports the blending of time sensitive mobile traffic alongside Ethernet services while delivering high network performance with ultra-low latency. This solution leverages multiplexing packet technology and virtualized XGS-Passive Optical Network (PON) infrastructure to significantly enhance fiber capacity to lower costs, while also maximizing flexibility in delivering converged services over common infrastructure investments.

By utilizing HFR Networks’ solutions to operate a converged in-building network, Andorix is able to quickly scale multiple cloud-based smart building services to various customer markets on a single platform. Besides minimizing complexity and providing enormous flexibility, this solution dramatically reduces the network equipment required while also decreasing deployment cycle times. As a result, Andorix is achieving substantial cost savings while also increasing business agility.
