Sonus Webinar: Essential Diameter Network Capabilities To Support The LTE On-Ramp

Explosive mobile traffic growth, largely driven by the proliferation of LTE mobile devices, new broadband technologies and Internet video content, have caused a tremendous increase in network messaging volume that can overwhelm critical LTE network elements and degrade services for a large number of subscribers.

There are ways that mobile service providers can approach the diameter signaling issue. Until now, one approach has been to increase the processing performance of network elements such as MME, and PCRF. Unfortunately, this strategy is expensive and provides only a short-term solution. Not all service providers have the financial strength to simply throw money at the problem, nor does that guarantee a sustainable solution. A better solution can be found with the deployment of Diameter Signaling Controllers (DSC). The DSC can be an indispensable component of the LTE network by providing network and services protection, improved performance, and traffic management.

Join us on this webinar to gain critical insight and understanding of the essential DSC capabilities and how DSCs are moving beyond the basics to deliver:
- Advanced security
- Virtualization
- Interworking with legacy signaling systems
- SBC Integration for VoLTE
