Telecom Lead India: Tata Communications said it supports mobile industry migration to 4G/LTE.
Tata Communications has introduced two new solutions – the Virtual Private Roaming Hub which consolidates roaming operations and the LTE Roaming Service to streamline roaming for 4G networks.
Tata Communications is also launching the Managed SMS Firewall to protect MNOs and consumers against mobile spam.
The new initiative is part of Tata Communications expansion of its managed services for mobile network operators (MNOs) looking to grow their mobile broadband offering as 4G continues to gather pace globally.
Tim Sherwood, vice president, Mobile Segment Strategy, Tata Communications, says mobile broadband presents unique opportunities for mobile operators to rethink their business and service delivery models in order to address the challenges of data growth and fierce competition.
Tata Communications says its managed services framework efficiently empowers mobile operators to generate revenue from new services, capabilities and business models.
Tata Communications’ LTE Roaming Service ensures service continuity while simplifying LTE roaming interconnection across MNOs. With Diameter Signalling eXchange for authentication and policy control and IPX Connect for data roaming and delivery, LTE Roaming further compliments Tata Communications’ extensive experience as the largest mobile signalling inter-provider network as well as a leading global data network.
Tata Communications’ Managed SMS Firewall protects MNO networks against fraud and spam generated by international SMS.
Tata Communications’ managed solutions are delivered through an IPX+ converged interconnect platform across mobile networks to manage end-to-end delivery of multiple services over IP, including voice, video, messaging, roaming and signalling.
