NEW YORK--()--Alef, the first mobile Edge API Platform, announced today that they have partnered with Winncom Technologies, a worldwide distributor of complete networking solutions, and Baicells, a provider of LTE and 5G radio products, to create a kitted, easy to use private mobile network solution leveraging the CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) Band. The do-it-yourself kit includes an Alef mobile core with eSIM, SIM and radio access network (RAN) management, end user devices, and choice of Baicells indoor or outdoor radios to deliver a highly tailored private mobile network for enterprises or service providers to get started.

The kits are highly automated to allow enterprises, value added resellers (VAR’s) and managed service providers (MSP’s) to quickly launch and affordably scale a private mobile network in minutes. In addition, the kit features Alef’s programmable API’s compatible with any RAN provider.

Alef’s self-serve API approach removes the complexity of deploying a private mobile network and offers enterprises, VAR’s and MSP’s the ability to stand up a private mobile network without the friction of waiting months for hardware and software deployment.

Winncom Technologies’ extensive experience and engineering resources enable them to identify, design and implement the most effective and economical turnkey solutions based on a combination of the latest technologies and CBRS components. Combined with Alef’s programmable API technology, Winncom’s CBRS product and service portfolio will bring CBRS based connectivity to the enterprise, ensuring secure communications for all who desire to create their own private network.

This partnership completes the do-it-yourself kit to deliver an affordable and scalable solution for enterprises of all types and sizes to deploy their own private mobile network.
