nSignia is an innovative, highly reliable, and cost effective signalling solution for transporting SS7 traffic over more flexible IP networks.
By working closely with Ulticom, Fixed and Mobile has deployed nSignia as a signal transfer point (STP) and signalling gateway to increase its network capabilities and expand its network presence to interconnect with mobile operators around the world over IP.
This strategy, and the fact that nSignia scales to meet capacity requirements, saves deployment time and cost, while still offering carrier-grade performance and availability.
"nSignia has been instrumental to Fixed and Mobile for launching our Next Generation Mobile Signalling Hub, which enables mobile operators to establish global roaming and messaging interconnections with unique features," said Eric Barbier, managing director at Fixed and Mobile.
"Around the world, 175 million people are working and living abroad".
"Remittance by these workers to their home country alone is approximately USD125 billion annually, which makes this a primary income source for most developing countries, ahead of foreign direct investment".
"Fixed and Mobile is addressing a growing market need to extend communication services to an underserved segment, which poses a compelling opportunity for service providers," said Osman Duman, senior vice president and CMO at Ulticom.
"nSignia Signalling Gateway enables carriers to address opportunities quickly and with minimum investment in new network infrastructure".
For over a decade, network equipment and service providers have relied on Ulticom to deliver comprehensive, carrier-grade signalling solutions for the most demanding communication services.
nSignia Signalling Gateway is built on Ulticom Signalware, the market leading SS7 signalling solution as measured by Venture Data Corporation (VDC), an independent technology market research and strategy firm.
