Systems Integration

SI today takes centre stage, as telecom service providers (TSPs) and equipment manufacturers (OEMs) look to enhance user experience while maximizing their revenues. i2i works closely with OEMs and take their solutions to TSPs; across various markets.

i2i has in-depth knowledge of planning, design & delivery of industry standards based VAS and Service assurance solutions. I2i works with some of the leading global brands in its domains such as HP, AcmePacket, Juniper and Exfo to design, integrate, deploy and manage their suite of VAS & service Assurance products in wireless, wire line (VoIP & IMS) and hybrid networks.

i2i’s system integration services in general include (but not limited to):

• Consultation for choosing best of breed OSS, BSS, VAS, IN and IMS COTS products.
• End-to-end process and solution architecture design.
• Integration of new VAS nodes into the existing telecom infrastructure.
• Integration of new Applications/COTS (Mediation, Billing, CRM, Data warehouse) with existing IT infrastructure.
• Development of Point Solutions, Adapters and Connectors for integrating new telecom infrastructure/nodes with the existing IT applications of the operator.
• NMS/EMS systems development and maintenance.
• BSS/OSS customization and development.

The present SI offerings from i2i are:

• Mobile solutions for access, interconnect & core by Acme packet.
• Next generation Service Assurance Solutions for mobile, IP networks & IPTV by Exfo.
• Service Management & Policy Control for hybrid networks by Juniper.
• HP OCMP
• Mobile Data Offload

With the ever-growing popularity of smart phones, mobile data usage is rapidly increasing, resulting in a major 3G capacity crunch. For service providers, the demand to offer fast and reliable mobile data service while optimizing network resources becomes increasingly challenging.

A robust solution and mobile data offload, alleviates 3G network congestion by leveraging existing technologies and infrastructures. When in range of the provider's Wi-Fi network, a smart phone can switch automatically from 3G to Wi-Fi without interruption in service. Thus, service providers can easily alleviate 3G network congestion by offloading 3G data traffic from smart phones onto their Wi-Fi networks at hotspots.

i2i’s Mobile to Wi-Fi Authentication Gateway enables service providers to shift 3G data traffic to a Wi-Fi network, either to their own or a partnering provider's network, thereby reducing congestion and optimizing 3G networks.

Solution Highlights:

• Network Optimization is achieved by offloading bandwidth-intensive data traffic onto lower cost, available Wi-Fi networks wherever possible. By alleviating smart phone network congestion, mobile operators can better allocate 3G network resources
• Increase Customer Satisfaction by offering high-speed Wi-Fi connection automatically at popular hotspot locations without intervention or interruption of service. Because the solution utilizes existing common technology in mobile devices, customers need not upgrade their devices
