Sonus Demonstrates Centralized Call Routing Database at MWC

By Susan J. Campbell, TMCnet Contributing Editor


Sonus Networks (News - Alert) demonstrated its Centralized Call Routing Database today at Mobile World Congress (News - Alert). This supplier of service provider IP-voice infrastructure solutions aimed to demonstrate its commitment to wireless operators around the globe.


The Centralized Call Routing Database is designed to answer wireless network operators’ demands for advanced IP solutions that drive network efficiency and streamline the rollout of network expansions.
 
"Mobile operators around the globe are addressing consumers' insatiable appetite for wireless services and increased connectivity,” said Vikram Saksena (News - Alert), chief technology officer, Sonus Networks, in a Tuesday statement. “With flat-rate pricing plans and increasing competition, network efficiency is a prime concern in the mobile industry. Sonus is continually advancing its mobility solutions to improve wireless networks efficiency, which translates into valuable cost savings."

Sonus’ Centralized Call Routing Database leverages Sonus PSX Policy Server, which allows mobile operators to consolidate routing decisions in a central location instead of provisioning each individual mobile switching center (MSC).
 
The solution delivers enhanced network performance and efficiency by providing mobile operators with “transcoder-free operation” (TrFO). Eliminating the need to convert signals between disparate mobile networks allows network operators to enjoy free additional network capacity.
 
"Simplicity is a key component in reducing wireless network costs. By centralizing the routing intelligence in a network, Sonus' solution reduces the multiple points of potential failure in traditional networks and provides a logical and streamlined network architecture," said Stephane Teral, Principal Analyst, Service Provider VoIP, IMS and Mobile Infrastructure with Infonetics, in Tuesday’s statement. "This scalable and reliable architecture is especially critical when the mobile call is routed between multi-vendor mobile switching centers. Interoperability is essential in the wireless world and Sonus has provided a solution that supports this, while reducing costs."

The Sonus Centralized Call Routing Database solution uses Session Initiation Protocol (News - Alert) (SIP) and can be deployed in both CDMA and GSM-based networks. Sonus Mobility Solutions are field proven and seamlessly integrate with Home Location Registers to determine the location of the mobile user initiating the call and efficiently route calls to the end destination.

The Sonus Centralized Call Routing Database solution is available now.

The Centralized Call Routing Database is Sonus Networks way of attacking two key elements in the wireless world: switching and cost. By ensuring that switching is streamlined and efficient, the operator can lower its cost. Implementing the Sonus solution will help to facilitate both benefits and ultimately improve operations for the provider, while also delivering an improved experience for the subscriber.
