Our High-Performing Core Network
Fully virtualizable on VMware, K8S, Docker and OpenStack containers
Access and Mobility Management Function(AMF)
AMF terminates the control plane of different access networks onto the 5G Core Network(5GC) and control which UEs can access the 5GC to exchange traffic with DNs. It also manages the mobility of UEs when they roam from one gNB to another for session continuity, whenever possible.
Key Benefits
Converged EPC MME and 5GC AMF core network function
Perfect compatibility with third-party core network elements
Deployed on X86 COTS server, NFV platform and Cloud
Enabled for centralized or distributed data centers
IPLOOK's 5GC AMF
- IPLOOK 5GC AMF supports registration management, access control and mobility management function for all 3GPP accesses as well as non-3GPP accesses such as WLAN. AMF also receives mobility related policies from PCF (e.g. mobility restrictions) and forwards them to the UE. AMF fully supports 4G interoperability with the interface to 4G EPC MME node.
- Assuming the responsible for mobility management, the AMF is in charge for managing handovers between gNodeB’s (gNB’s), within the Next Generation Radio Access Network (NG-RAN). Formally referred to as an X2 handover, in 5G it is termed an Xn handover. This represents the updated reference interface application protocol (XnAP) employed between gNB base stations, which is defined within the 3GPP’s Technical Specification (TS) 38.423.
