After discovering netElastic through an online search, Clearnetworx evaluated the platform against alternatives including Cisco and Juniper. Clearnetworx selected netElastic's integrated vBNG, CGNAT and netVision solution to eliminate expensive proprietary hardware and ongoing service contracts.

The deployment runs on Dell XR11 servers purchased on the secondary market, chosen in part for their front-facing port design that simplifies rack operations. The netElastic system is now in production, handling CGNAT addressing and IPv6 dual-stack integration for subscribers, with additional units ready for deployment as the network expands.

Results & Benefits
netElastic's software-based platform delivers carrier-grade performance on standard x86 servers, significantly lowering total cost of ownership compared with traditional hardware solutions. Clearnetworx benefits from streamlined subscriber management, efficient IPv4 conservation through CGNAT, seamless IPv6 support, and responsive technical support that far exceeds the experience typically offered by major hardware vendors. The solution positions Clearnetworx to scale reliably as its network continues to grow across multiple markets.
