6WIND Partners with VORCO to Deliver Enhanced Internet, Voice, and Data Services in New Zealand
Singapore, Nov 9th, 2023 – 6WIND, a leading green-tech networking software company specializing in high-performance virtualized and cloud-native network solutions, is thrilled to announce its successful collaboration with VORCO, an enterprise-focused Telco based in Auckland, New Zealand. VORCO specializes in delivering cutting-edge Internet, Voice, and Data services, covering the entire New Zealand region. Learn more at (https://vorco.nz).
6WIND and VORCO have joined forces to address two crucial use cases, namely Security Gateway and Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), unlocking higher bandwidth and more resilient services.
Security Gateway Enhancement:
VORCO initially sought to replace their existing VPN solution with 6WIND’s vSecGW (Virtual Security Gateway Router). This decision was driven by the need to provide secure remote access to their internal systems for their internal team, partners, and contractors. The results have been outstanding, with two key benefits:
- Improved Throughput: VORCO reported that the vSecGW has significantly increased the throughput per connected user compared to their previous solution.
- Enhanced Stability and Security: The new vSecGW implementation has improved stability, providing a seamless and reliable remote connection experience, enabling the team to move to a Zero Trust environment, using certificate-secured, OS native VPN clients for remote management, enhancing security posture.
Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) Replacement:
VORCO also recognized the need to evolve their infrastructure by investing in 6WIND’s vCPE (Virtual Customer Premises Equipment). This strategic move served a dual purpose:
- New Product Launch: VORCO introduced their innovative Vorco XG Router, powered by 6WIND’s vCPE, to offer an advanced internet solution to their customers. More details about this exciting product can be found at [https://vorco.nz/internet/xg](https://vorco.nz/internet/xg).
- Replacement of Existing Solution: The vCPE solution allowed VORCO to retire their gigabit-constrained platform from a leading global vendor, enabling innovative services beyond 1Gbps without sacrificing stability. vCPE allows VORCO to get ahead of their business customer’s growing bandwidth requirements without blowing the budget. These vCPE units are deployed on high performance while small footprint COTS and are remotely managed using VORCO’s in-house management platform, harnessing 6WIND’s Netconf API and Telemetry capabilities.
Positive Customer Feedback:
The Vorco XG Router, based on 6WIND’s vCPE technology, has been available for order for approximately one month. VORCO has already deployed several units at customer sites, and the feedback received from customers has been overwhelmingly positive.
A Collaborative Future:
6WIND is committed to a mutually beneficial partnership with VORCO, and we are excited about further collaboration on other 6WIND VSR software solutions to support VORCO in releasing new innovative products to the New Zealand market.
Together with VORCO, 6WIND is poised to drive the evolution of telecommunications services in New Zealand, delivering higher performance, enhanced security, and improved customer experiences.
“Collaborating with VORCO has been a testament to the power of innovation and partnership. We’re proud to be working closely with VORCO to enhance their networking infrastructure, delivering higher performance, security, and reliability. This partnership underscores our commitment to empowering Telcos like VORCO to provide top-tier services to their customers. We look forward to continuing our collaboration and driving the evolution of telecommunications in New Zealand.” Commented Julien Dahan, CEO, 6WIND
