Path Border Controller
MaiaEdge delivers a new class of carrier-grade infrastructure purpose-built for interconnecting isolated networks. The Path Border Controller (PBC) hardware and Path Computation Engine (PCE) software enable Federated Private Networking, allowing operators to build automated network fabrics and federate with partners to create a shared services ecosystem, while maintaining individual sovereignty.
Path Border Controller
The compact dual 100 Gbps device provides plug and play connectivity at your network edge. Interconnect PBCs automatically and activate deterministic private paths across your network and federated partner networks, without running protocols in the field. Every path is encrypted by default for secure and reliable performance at scale.
| Form Factor | 1RU |
| Capacity | Dual 100 Gbps |
| Encryption | AES-256-GCM |
Simplify operations with automated private path provisioning and deterministic control. No VLAN coordination or BGP/OSPF configuration required.
Merged L2 and L3 capabilities let you combine fiber and DIA connectivity in a single unified fabric, reducing complexity and accelerating service delivery.
Line-rate AES-256-GCM encryption protects all traffic without throughput compromise.
Add the MaiaEdge Port Extender for 48 additional tenant ports, ideal for colocation and meet-me room deployments.
Path Computation Engine
Cloud-native orchestrator continuously computes optimal routes, automates deterministic path creation, and provides end-to-end visibility across network boundaries. Multi-tenancy ensures customer sovereignty across operator domains.
PCE continuously monitors paths across PBCs and automatically reroutes traffic around degraded links for optimized performance. SRLG-aware path selection ensures true physical redundancy by avoiding shared trenches and carriers.
Real-time SLA telemetry (loss, latency, and jitter), hop-by-hop across network boundaries.
API-first design enables direct integrations with billing and operations systems. Built for industry-standard Mplify LSO Sonata interoperability and ecosystem extensibility.
Native integrations with Equinix and Megaport enable automated connectivity to AWS Direct Connect and Azure ExpressRoute, without complex routing protocols.
White-label dashboard offers customers a self-service portal with SLA transparency. End users see one unified fabric under your brand, abstracting partner providers.
Port Extender
Scale connectivity without adding complexity. The integrated switch works alongside the PBC to expand port capacity, enabling more connections and cross-connects through a common orchestrator.
| Form Factor | 1 RU |
| Ports | 48 x 10/25GbE |
| Uplinks | 8 x 100GbE |
Connect up to 48 tenants per unit with flexible 10GbE or 25GbE port configurations. Scale your meet-me room without scaling your rack footprint.
Redundant hot-swappable power supplies and fans with 150,000+ hour MTBF. Front-to-back or back-to-front airflow options for any rack configuration.
Federate With Partners
Extend your reach and revenue by federating with partner providers.
