Hewlett Packard Enterprise and NEC Corporation have partnered to help companies accelerate the adoption of mobile-first networking to improve workplace productivity.

Under the agreement, HPE and Aruba will integrate their enterprise wireless and wired networking portfolio with NEC’s SDN solutions.

As part of the first phase of joint development, the companies will accelerate the integration of NEC SDN Controllers and SDN Switches with Aruba and HPE switches, routers, wireless access points, controllers, network management, and network access control (NAC) products.

These integrated voice and video communications offerings and managed services will first be offered to customers in Japan and the Asia Pacific region, including Australia, followed by the Americas and Europe.

"HPE and NEC have joined forces to bring the value of mobile first networking to our mutual customers worldwide," Hewlett Packard Enterprise Networking general manager Dominic Orr said.

"We are leveraging years of joint collaboration to integrate our technologies in order to rapidly address additional customer opportunities across our key markets."

"The Integration of NEC's SDN technologies and HPE and Aruba Mobile First technologies will result in comprehensive solutions that help our customers worldwide enhance their productivity," added NEC executive vice president Kimihiko Fukuda.

"We also see complementary value to jointly collaborating in areas such as security and the Internet of Things.”
