Next Generation Network (NGN) is a single network which transports data and services through packets. These networks provide services such as data, voice, video, e-mail, and other multimedia & telecom services. They also support convergence (convergence of PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) voice network, Wireless & data networks), mobility, integrity, multi-layer orientation etc. NGN is based on the layered approach as services provided are separated from the network infrastructure. It provides multiple services from different providers who do not own or manage physical infrastructure of public networks. NGN provides market opportunities for manufacturers of a broad range of equipment types, including provider edge, metro access/ aggregation, mobile backhaul equipment, data center switches, and enterprise switches and routers.
