RCATS is automated and centrally managed for the continuous monitoring of end-user services to ensure consistency of availability and performance.
Wireless service providers can proactively address problems before they affect the customer, differentiate service offerings and drive down service costs.

RCATS is compatible with US and international wireless protocols including 2G (CDMA, GSM and TDMA), as well as 2.5G (1xRTT, EDGE and GPRS), 3G (UMTS, HSDPA and 1xEV-DO).
