WiTech helps operators build flexible and adaptable WiMAX CSN

TEXAS, USA: In today's uncertain technology and market scenarios, many Operators in the process of starting the deployment of a WiMAX-centered Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) network are faced with a number of thorny questions, including:

* How to keep going with reduced capital resources and more conservative expense policies?
* How to flexibly cope with technological evolutions and multi-technology options?
* How to accelerate time-to-market whilst also helping meeting regulatory constrains?
* How to differentiate service offerings with better total quality and more added values?

A great deal of the answers to the above depends from the right implementation of the Connectivity Service Network (CSN) component of the WiMAX reference architecture; including the fact that for many small to mid-size WiMAX deployments, the cost of the CSN represents a large percentage of the initial investment, which directly effects the sustainability of a competitive price positioning.WiTech's Fast Deployment CSN Solution is flexible and adaptable, yet scalable and durable over time. All at an affordable investment and no-surprise Total Cost of Ownership.

Witech's Fast Deployment CSN Solution is centered around the WROP Access & Service Management platform.

WROP is a carrier-class integrated platforms tailored to support fast moving Operators addressing their key operational and business needs. It allows to deploy and manage wireless and wireline broadband access networks with advanced features for subscriber authentication, accounting and service management. The platform supports different business models through the implementation of extended, multilevel value chains (like Wholesaler, Virtual Network Operator, Reseller, End Customer).

WiTech can help WiMAX Operators meet the challenge of timely deploying their right first-step CSN and keeping it aligned as their network and business expand.

The WROP Suite stands out for its rich feature set providing comprehensive support of different types of Broadband Access Network technologies (xDSL, WiFi Hot Spot, HiperLAN, Fixed WiMAX, Mobile WiMAX), Authentication schemas (UAM, PPPoE, PPPoA, 802.1x, Radius RFC2865/2138, Extended WISPr, etc.), Services (Fixed Access, Nomadic Access, Portable Access, VoIP, IP-Centrex, Mobile VoIP, etc.), and Rating schemas (Flat, Prepaid, Postpaid, Single Access Accounting, Advanced VoIP Rating, etc.).

The platform features also an integrated state-of-the-art NMS (Network Monitoring System) supporting the SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, SNMPv3 standards and capable of managing outage, event/notification, performance, etc.

Thanks to its rich set of standard-based APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) the platform can be easily integrated into new and existing environments. Through its own dedicated connectors developed by WiTech, WROP is also natively pluggable into the market-leading Intalio|BPP Business Process Management platform for a full automation of key operational processes.
