IPLOOK and AsiaInfo International Forge Strategic Partnership to Deliver End-to-End 5G Solutions

IPLOOK Technologies Co., Ltd (“IPLOOK”), a leading provider of flexible, cloud-native 3G/4G/5G core network software for Operators, MVNOs, WISPs, and Enterprises, has announced a strategic partnership with AsiaInfo International (“AsiaInfo”), a global native-cloud BSS innovator specializing in Cloud Billing and Cloud Contact Center solutions. Together, the two companies will deliver high-performance, scalable, and standards-compliant end-to-end 5G solutions tailored for the telecom industry and vertical markets.

Successful Interoperability Test Validates Standards Compliance

Recently, IPLOOK’s 5G Core Network (5GC) successfully completed an interoperability test (IOT) with AsiaInfo’s Charging Function (CHF) in full compliance with 3GPP standards. The integration involved key network functions from both sides:

  • IPLOOK 5GC elements: SMF (Session Management Function), PCF (Policy Control Function), and UPF (User Plane Function)
  • AsiaInfo CHF: Converged Charging Function supporting online, offline, and slice-based charging

The successful IOT confirms that both platforms are fully aligned with 3GPP specifications and ready for commercial deployment.

IPLOOK 5GC: Cloud-Native, SBA-Based, and Voice-Ready

Built on a Service-Based Architecture (SBA) with strict control-plane and user-plane separation, IPLOOK’s 5GC supports all essential 3GPP network functions:

  • AMF: Access and Mobility Management Function
  • SMF: Session Management Function
  • PCF: Policy Control Function
  • UPF: User Plane Function
  • UDM/AUSF: Unified Data Management / Authentication Server Function
  • NSSF, NRF, NEF: Network slicing, discovery, and exposure capabilities

The solution fully supports VoNR, VoLTE, and CSFB, enabling operators to address diverse voice scenarios. Its modular, cloud-native design ensures high scalability, flexible deployment, and granular traffic management—ideal for both public and private 5G networks.

AsiaInfo VerisLite: Cloud-Native BSS for the 5G Era

AsiaInfo’s lightweight, cloud-native BSS platform—VerisLite—empowers service providers to focus on business innovation without the burden of complex software management. Key features include:

  • Customer Care & Self-Service
  • Order Management & Product Catalog
  • Convergent Charging Engine
  • Voucher, Top-up, Billing & Payment
  • Policy Control & 5G Enablement

Its CHF component implements 3GPP-compliant charging interfaces (Nchf) to support advanced 5G use cases such as network slicing monetization in Industry 4.0 environments.

Converged Charging: The Future of 5G Monetization

Traditional billing systems separate online (OCS) and offline (OFCS) charging. In contrast, the modern Converged Charging System (CCS) unifies both into a single architecture using the standardized Nchf interface. As a core element of CCS, the CHF enables real-time, policy-driven charging across 5G services—including dynamic slice-based pricing. The successful IOT between IPLOOK and AsiaInfo marks a major step toward seamless 5G business enablement.

“IPLOOK adheres to the principle of openness and win-win cooperation. The successful IOT with AsiaInfo’s CHF expands customer choice and accelerates time-to-market. We look forward to deepening our collaboration with AsiaInfo and other partners to deliver innovative, cost-effective 5G solutions for MNOs—especially in emerging markets.”

— Jarod Wang, VP at IPLOOK Technologies

“As vertical industries deepen their understanding of 5G capabilities, we’ll see broader collaboration between telcos and enterprises. The convergence of 5G, cloud, and edge computing unlocks transformative opportunities. AsiaInfo and IPLOOK are committed to delivering integrated, end-to-end products that empower these new ecosystems.”

— Junwu Wang, Chief Solution Architect at AsiaInfo International
