Inspire Net deploys a combination of OcNOS® software with open hardware to address a growing gap in service provisioning to rural and remote communities in New Zealand
Santa Clara, CA – August 26, 2025 – IP Infusion, a global leader in open networking software solutions, today announced that Inspire Net, a leading Internet Service Provider in New Zealand, has successfully deployed IP Infusion's OcNOS network operating system with UfiSpace hardware, in partnership with Independent Data Solutions (IDS), to modernize its network infrastructure. This deployment has enabled Inspire Net to enhance scalability, streamline operations, and reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO). System integrator Independent Data Solutions is responsible for the deployment.
Inspire Net largely serves rural and underserved communities and faces growing demand for high-speed, reliable connectivity across its customer base.

- Scalable architecture: Supporting long-term growth across distributed sites without costly redesigns.
- Excellent cost-performance: Reducing both capital and operational expenditures.
- Resilient hardware design: Withstanding the environmental demands of rural deployments.
OcNOS, a robust and flexible network operating system, provides Inspire Net with advanced routing, switching, and automation capabilities and seamlessly integrates with UfiSpace's power-efficient open hardware. This solution allowed Inspire Net to replace legacy systems, improve network performance, and achieve greater operational agility.
"We are proud to empower Inspire Net with OcNOS, enabling them to build a future-ready network that meets the demands of modern connectivity," said Kiyo Oishi, CEO of IP Infusion.
