Airvana (News - Alert), a provider of technology and solutions for telecom platform deployments for high-speed mobile and broadband networks, has just unveiled its new EV-DO Radio Node Controller (RNC) technology for deployment in mobile operator networks.
By deploying the new RNC 9000 on a NEBS-compliant ATCA platform, Airvana offers its customers not only high capacity, but also the redundancy, reliability and cost-effective operations and management sought by mobile operators.
The new RNC 9000 addresses mobile operators’ needs for the features and performance required to tackle the demands on the network caused by ever increasing data traffic. In fact, it is highlighted as delivering more than four times the capacity and performance of previous generations of the company’s RNC technology. It can be scaled to even greater levels – as much as 10 times– as data traffic increases. It is compliant with all 3GPP2 EV-DO standards as well.
“The RNC 9000 gives mobile operators the means to address the increasing demand for mobile data in one of the most efficient, reliable ways possible,” said Harjot Saluja, vice president of EV-DO product management for Airvana, in a statement. “Mobile operators can now deploy fewer, higher capacity RNC’s to handle their data traffic, and the built-in scalability provides ample headroom for future growth.”
Moreover, the ATCA-based solution is fully backward-compatible with earlier generations of Airvana RNC technology. It provides mobile operators with a highly flexible and cost-effective deployment option in addition to the ability to upgrade the network when it is needed most.
Airvana provides an array of high-performance technology and products, from comprehensive 3G femtocell solutions based on its HubBub CDMA and UMTS femtocells, to core mobile broadband network infrastructure, enabling operators to deliver compelling broadband services to mobile subscribers wherever they are.
