Enabling True Service Convergence
Providers are migrating toward delivering “triple play on the move,” which combines voice, video, data, and mobility services. To achieve true service convergence, providers must be able to operate, bill, and manage a service over a range of access mediums. Cisco and its partners are developing an open Service Exchange framework, which allows service providers to control customer access and use of IP services, but does not limit the types of applications that they can deploy.
Through the service exchange framework, Cisco supports IP Multimedia System (IMS) architectures, which simplifies and accelerates the delivery of Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) applications. The Service Exchange Framework enables carriers to profitably deploy both SIP and non-SIP services, achieve greater network efficiencies, and improve network, service and business control.
Featured Solutions
Seamless Roaming
Seamless roaming enables data subscribers to remain continuously connected as they cross network boundaries and use different radio access networks. The result is more revenue opportunities and stronger subscriber relationships.
Content Billing for Mobile Operators
Once you’ve built out your infrastructure, you can focus on customer retention and increasing average revenue per customer. Content-based billing is a promising strategy for achieving both goals.
Content Filtering
As you begin offering more and different types of content, you need to filter and control the content that individual subscribers can access to satisfy customer preferences, provide parental controls, and comply with various requirements.
Security for Mobile Operators
Mobile Operators today are faced with many vulnerable points within their networks. Whether it within the Internet gateway nodes, home location registers, content servers or even handsets, Cisco has the solutions to keep mobile operators’ networks safe, secure and self-defending.
DDoS Protection Services
Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks present an especially damaging type of network security threat, because they can overwhelm the bandwidth of the connection and disrupt all IP-based services. The Cisco DDoS protection solution helps you protect your networks and your customers’ data from these harmful attacks.
Cisco Service Control Application for Mobile Networks
The Cisco Service Control Application for Mobile Networks helps mobile service providers maximize the revenue they generate out of their mobile data infrastructure by adding a programmable service layer to mobile data networks.
