Sunrise Telecom(R)
Incorporated (Pink Sheets: SRTI), a leader in test and measurement
solutions for telecom, cable and wireless networks, announced that its
Mobile X-Ray(TM) mobile data services analysis platform has been selected
by Telefonica O2 Germany to provide service monitoring and troubleshooting
for its growing data service program.
At the core of the program, O2 will utilize Sunrise Telecom's Traffic
Analysis and Monitoring System (TAMS) with the Mobile X-Ray application
module, as well as the 3GMaster Probe/Protocol Analyzer for network
monitoring and troubleshooting of new mobile data services. The combined
solution was selected because of its ability to monitor and optimize the
actual "customer experience" by intelligently correlating inputs from
network, service, subscriber and device elements themselves.
"Compared to traditional voice services, mobile data services introduce
a new set of complicated challenges for operators," said Konstantinos
Sifakis, Director at O2. "Not only must we ensure high service quality from
the customers' perspective, but this must be done in a mixed-technology,
mixed-protocol environment. Sunrise Telecom has proven that they not only
have the tools to support this environment, but as a company they truly
understand our operational issues as well."
The new agreement comes on the heels of a multi-year engagement where
Sunrise Telecom was selected for O2's massive mobile network core and
access optimization projects, which set the foundation for its mobile data
service initiative in Germany.
"We are pleased to continue our long standing relationship with O2, and
are honored to be selected for this critical project," said Michele
Campriani, General Manager of Sunrise Telecom's Protocol Products Group.
"We work with many mobile operators across the globe, and feel that O2
exemplifies state-of-the-art in their approach to mobile data service
migration."
