IP Mobile on your network for the leverage and flexibility you need to succeed
Simplify your interconnection set-up and migrate seamlessly to IP to offer your customer innovative new products and an unparalleled service experience, while reducing your costs at the same time.
Take costs out of your mobile networks and put new functionality in
Mobile markets are a fast-changing environment where customer requirements evolve at an unparalleled pace. The rise of smartphones and innovative tablets and the adoption of fixed-to- mobile conversion by your users mean that you as a mobile operator have to shoulder a heavy burden of investment in innovation. Whether you already operate a 3G network or are rolling one out to serve your customers with broadband-access mobile IP offerings, you are sure to see exponential growth in capacity requirements. At the same time regulators make you bid for new spectrum and vendors push long term evolution (LTE) as a route for you to address future user requirements and fierce competition in the broadband markets. BT can help you tackle those challenges, help you take cost out of your networks and put functionality in to excite and keep your customers.
Focus your investment on faster innovation and streamline the evolution of your infrastructure
Industry trends in mobile toward widespread adoption of 3G networks and long term evolution to 4G drive the migration to IP. At the same time users are becoming more and more mobile, especially in cross-border environments, where they want mobile voice and data roaming. Fixed-to-mobile conversion allows you to offer fixed network services alongside your mobile offerings, both in traditional and IP network environments. BT’s IP Mobile proposition helps you to make the most of your current assets, reap the benefits of IP migration and keep your investment risk low by:
- Supporting your migration to IP without the requirement for further investment in your TDM infrastructure; this allows you to maximise utilisation of the assets you have now without barring entry into new converged IP services and market segments;
- Addressing your requirement to establish true Interoperability with GSMA-compliant IP Exchange services, which help you to
- "Translate" between legacy and new-wave IP-based network environments
- Shift growth in volume, services and reach to IP from TDM to eliminate the requirement for investment in legacy infrastructure
- Migrate to IP at your own pace so you can address the requirements of your customers as they evolve and as you are ready to expend capital
- Accelerating the pace of your innovation in integrated IP based application and voice services with
- The support of BT’s full set of mobile-specific IPX and hubbing services, which simplify access to numerous providers for new and established services
- Our leading-edge development platforms for advanced and enhanced IP based voice applications, which allow you to create a wealth of new services to really excite your customers and maximise the user experience
Choose what your need from our broad range of components
BT’s IP Mobile proposition provides a full end-to-end range of mobile network solutions which help you minimise cost and maximise opportunity in your fiercely-competitive and rapidly-changing market. We can support your evolution with our line of advanced managed services, which includes:
- BT’s Global IP Exchange (GIPX) – a GSMA-compliant IP Exchange service offers you a resilient and proven high-quality IP Voice Hub with flexible hubbing models. These models allow you to retain your existing carrier/partner relationships or flexibly consolidate your supplier relationships by handing them to BT in a full-service hub approach. Our IP Exchange supports all necessary protocol conversions, reducing your investment in costly protocol and network upgrades so you can spend the money on innovation instead. The IP Exchange is embedded in BT’s industry award-winning Interoperability portfolio, which also offers numbering and transaction management, a number of service building blocks and developer platforms. It links the traditional switched world with the IP world and allows you to migrate to IP at your own pace.
- A Signalling and Roaming Hub (BT’s RoamConnect) – this RoamConnect service provides you with a reliable signalling service of excellent quality delivered via a hub that reaches 622 mobile operators in more that 170 countries. And you can choose between TDM (C7/SS7) or IP based signalling (SigTran) or a mixture of both to migrate your signalling capabilities as required.
- BT’s SMS and MMS Hubbing – for the seamless, convenient and high-quality delivery of messaging services to 480 networks for one-way transmission and 345 networks for two-way transmission. This competitively-priced messaging hub service is fully GSMA-compliant and delivered to you with one contract, one Interconnect and one bill. Thus you can streamline your messaging operations and save costs through consolidation.
On request, BT can enhance this proposition for you with data and financial clearing services, intelligent routing services, and number portability and management support.
Our IP Mobile offer enables you to migrate fully to IP services without compromising end-to-end control. You can enhance quality and simplify your infrastructure by leveraging one exchange hub that gives you the functionality of many.
You can address your changing market needs by actively phasing out legacy TDM infrastructure and offering new converged IP services.
You can take out maintenance costs and eliminate investment at the end-of-life cycle of your current TDM networks.
You can launch innovative IP offerings supported by a hub that simplifies interconnect management and lets you consolidate destinations and suppliers – with the ability to retain key partner relationships.
IP Mobile gives you the leverage and flexibility you need to succeed.
In summary, IP Mobile is a suite of services combined in one convenient proposition for operators and communication providers who seek to simplify their Interconnection arrangements for all services.
You can save costs through the migration of numerous small-band interconnection lines to one redundant high-capacity connection and the integration of several services on that one connection. And thanks to redundancy and SLAs you need not compromise on availability and resilience. The consolidated systems infrastructure elements require less maintenance and in taking out complexity you take out risk as well.
As it is easier to manage just one contract with hubbing options for all related services, it is also easier to manage growth and the risk associated with pricing. And the single contract enables commercial bundling of services from Day One with the option of technical and commercial inter-working between those services to enhance your customer’s experience.
Most of all, IP Mobile gives you the ability to migrate from traditional to new-wave IP based services in a dynamic way and in alignment with your own investment priorities. With IP Mobile you can transform your business to stay competitive and to offer your users the best possible service.
