Mobile operator supporting over 30 million subscribers expands deployment from 3G to 4G
Boston, MA, Sept. 20, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Allot Communications Ltd. (NASDAQ: ALLT), a leading supplier of service optimization and revenue generation solutions for fixed and mobile broadband service providers worldwide, announced today the deployment of its Allot Service Gateway solution, in a major European operator's 4G rollout, which will enable the operator's vision of providing a fixed network alternative. The LTE rollout incorporates network intelligence built-in from the ground up as an integral part of the LTE architecture. This will enable optimized delivery of data at rates up to 100Mbps and the implementation of value-based charging and innovative service plans.
As a committed member of the 3GPP, Allot is vigorously leading the push to evolve standards to keep pace with commercial realities. Allot's 3GPP compliant solution accurately identifies OTT (over-the-top) application traffic in real time at speeds of up to 160 Gbps per platform. This provides subscriber, application and network intelligence previously unavailable to policy and charging systems. With granular usage information, operators can better monetize network traffic in ways that reflect its true value for both the operator and the subscriber. Services enabled through the Allot solution include premium video-caching and optimization, as well as tailored packages, where particular application traffic is zero-rated against the subscriber's data cap.
"LTE network operators have learned a lesson from their 3G predecessors," said Rami Hadar, Allot's President and CEO. "Rather than upgrading, they are now building out their networks as smart pipes from the outset. The requirement for value-based charging models is amplified by subscribers' unquenchable demand for bandwidth and a new generation of data-hungry applications, as well as the service providers' need to find new ways to monetize their networks Allot's access-agnostic solution is designed to allow the operator to seamlessly maintain the same innovative approach to charging across all of access, including 3G, LTE and fixed networks."
