AT&T and Cisco are expanding their existing partnership to enhance SD-WAN connectivity with add-on services such as 5G and broadband.
The partnership will also natively integrate Cisco’s Webex Calling with the AT&T mobile network to provide a mobile-first and unified collaboration experience via a single business mobile number.
For small and medium businesses, AT&T is launching a new self-service option to simplify and accelerate SD-WAN deployment.
For larger enterprises, AT&T SD-WAN with Cisco is a fully managed connectivity solution with embedded security and analytics.
Cisco will also provide the ability to embed AT&T wireless connectivity into Cisco devices enabling zero touch provisioning for Cisco and AT&T customers, through AT&T Control Center powered by Cisco.
"The network is at the core of the modern workforce. The ability to get things done is no longer reliant on where you are, but how you are connected," said Jonathan Davidson, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Cisco Networking. "Hybrid work only works when there is a seamless, consistent, and secure experience for workers, regardless of location.”
