Telefonica Vivo Launches 5G-Ready IP Transport Network with Cisco and NEC to Provide Seamless Connections Across Brazil
Telefonica designed the Fusion Network Project as a platform for incorporating services into a single network infrastructure, offering advanced communications services, and transforming the customer experience. Leveraging the power of automation, the project aims to offer a more agile, scalable, and flexible network with improved reliability for both residential users and enterprises in the 5G era.
As defined in the Fusion Network Project, Cisco and NEC will work together to optimize Telefonica Vivo's total cost of ownership (TCO) and increase business agility by simplifying its network architecture and operations, converging mobile and fixed networks, and automating multi-layer networks across packet, optical and microwave domains. In addition, Segment Routing IPv6 will be implemented to enable a unified architecture with network slicing capabilities.
The simplification and automation of a multi-domain, multi-layer converged network coupled with segment routing, will increase Telefonica Vivo's network scalability and flexibility as it prepares to launch 5G. The Fusion Network Architecture will provide the scalability and flexibility needed to design and deliver new services.
As part of the agreement, Cisco will provide industry-leading network equipment including ASR 9000 and NCS 540 series routers for IP transport, Cisco Crosswork Network Controller as the multi-vendor SDN solution, and Cisco Crosswork Hierarchical Controller to enable multi-vendor and multi-layer automation within the Fusion Network domain. Cisco will serve as the key networking advisor leveraging a long-standing relationship and in-depth understanding of Telefonica Vivo's network.
Also building on a strong relationship and knowledge of the Telefonica Vivo network, NEC will serve as the key network integrator and provide local engineering capabilities with 5G xHaul transformation services to deliver a scalable migration for thousands of nodes.
"Since the transport network will play a key role in supporting innovative customer experiences and new services built on 5G, we needed trusted partners with a solid track record and local delivery capabilities," said Elmo Matos, Planning Director, Telefonica Vivo.
"Building on our partnership with NEC, we are pleased to enable Telefonica Vivo in providing faster, more seamless connections through a more modern, simplified network," said Shaun McCarthy, Vice President of Worldwide Sales, Mass Infrastructure Group, Cisco. "It is a great honor for Cisco to help be the bridge that is bringing the Internet for the Future to Brazil."
"NEC is honored to be selected as key partner for the Fusion Network Project, which is foundational to blossoming digital experiences in 5G," said Mayuko Tatewaki, General Manager, Service Provider Solutions Division, NEC Corporation. "With Cisco's trusted solutions combined into NEC's 5G xHaul Automation Ecosystem and further extended by our network integration capabilities globally and regionally, we are confident the implementation of the next-gen network will help deploy immersive 5G services in Brazil."

Multichain Web3 Social Protocol Atem Network Received $3M Seed Round Investment
Singapore, Feb 22, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - Singapore based web3 startup Atem Network has recently raised $3 million in its seed round led by INCE Capital. The other investors include GSR Ventures, Mask Network, Mirana Ventures, A&T Capital, Atlas Capital, Foresight Ventures, Zonff Partners, and Michael Zhang, Co-founder of Zhihu.
According to Atem Network, the fund will be used to build a multichain web3 social platform combining decentralized community and social trades. On the platform, group spaces can be initiated based on tokens and NFTs (both classified as crypto assets) allowing users to chat, trade and govern. This will create a community exclusively for crypto and NFT owners with strong mutual interests. Additionally, the team is working on sketching a user portrait layer based on on-chain data to serve different Dapp developers, including group spaces and channel recommendations in Atem. Unlike web2, all values created in this web3 community will be given back to the community members as rewards. Atem's long-term goal is to make full use of on-chain data to serve different Dapp developers and become the go-to one stop solution for the social infrastructure of web3.
Commenting on the fund raising, Leo Li, CEO of Atem Network, said, "We are at the brink of massive changes brought about by Web3 which will undoubtedly become a part of our daily lives in the future. It's our great honor to have the support from the community and participate in this epic trend. We will keep on building great products for the community, and focus on how to better serve community and social trades."
The founding team consists of young professionals with experience across top tier tech firms, investment banks and venture capital. Leo Li is a Tsinghua University alumnus. He worked as a product manager at TikTok and a venture capitalist at INCE Capital before he became an entrepreneur in web3. Eric Chan, COO of the project, former Head of Growth Product at Bybit, has 12 years of experience in finance, technology and crypto exchange sectors and served companies including Meta, TikTok, J.P.Morgan and HSBC.
About Atem Network
Founded in November 2021, the company is currently developing its chat tool product which aims for beta release in mid-March, 2022. Atem Network will be offering its very first 5,000 limited edition NFT passports to the crypto and NFT communities. Anyone who holds the passport will get first-hand experience on the Atem platform and additional future rewards. More information can be found on Atem's page (https://www.atemnet.com).
