Aether is the first open source 5G Connected Edge platform for enabling enterprise digital transformation. It delivers mobile connectivity and edge cloud services for distributed networks with cloud-based management. Aether is optimized for multi-cloud deployments and simultaneous support for wireless connectivity over licensed, unlicensed and lightly-licensed (CBRS) spectrum.
Aether Architecture
Aether utilizes modular building blocks that leverage other established open source ONF projects
- ROC Runtime configuration module for all Aether project components
- SD-Core 4G, 5G core network stack
- SD-RAN near real-time RIC supporting development of xApps
- SD-Fabric SDN programmable forwarding plane with UPF functionality
