job, we are considering going Full MVNO. Which means building a mobile core
network.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span lang="EN-US">I was
wondering if some of you would have feedback or advices on the solutions currently
available?</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span lang="EN-US">We would
like to avoid the big providers (Ericsson & such).<br>
Ideally, something opensource, or, if proprietary, a company maybe willing to
license access to the code (one can dream).</span></p>

or partial solutions. This makes for quite the puzzle.</span></p>

ones I found most interesting:</span></p>

It looks like the more active open EPC implementation out there.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span lang="EN-US">And it seems
that Yate people have a commercial product covering basically everything needed
