Faster software development and less operating system risks
Zyxel ZyEE is a secure and future-proof Linux kernel-based execution environment, also known as a container. ZyEE creates a predictable environment isolated from other applications for software developers and service providers to develop, enable, install, and uninstall third-party applications without risking the core operating system. ZyEE’s portability and scalability enhance software development agility by providing broader compatibility with various hardware environments. In addition, the compact and structurally simple ZyEE optimizes system computing resources. With ZyEE, service providers can deliver new features to subscribers with reduced time-to-market while remotely managing services through existing ACS servers.
Zyxel OPAL firmware realizes the flexibility and faster time to market
Compliant with the same OPAL firmware trunk applied in all Zyxel CPEs, the EX5501-B0 inherits a rich, field-proven feature set including TR-069 and more. Service providers can ensure the same user experience after migrating to new devices.
