DUBAI: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. (Huawei), a leader in providing next generation telecommunications network solutions for operators around the world, has announced the commercial introduction of its IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) 3.0 solution that provides an open architecture for the development of multimedia services.
This solution will counter challenges facing telecom operators like intense competition and the need to introduce new services. Huawei IMS 3.0 solution is the first commercial Fixed/Mobile Convergence (FMC) solution in the industry that complies with both 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) and TISPAN (Telecoms & Internet converged Services & Protocols for Advanced Networks), and provides an open architecture over which service providers, platform providers, and terminal providers can work together to introduce diversified multimedia services."With this solution, carriers can create a subscriber-focused architecture based on FMC and CT-IT convergence, which opens up network and service capabilities, and promotes a healthy environment for IMS applications," said Wang Jiading, vice president, Huawei Technologies Mideast and North Africa Operations.
Based on a common hardware and software platform, Huawei IMS solution can help simplify the network deployment process and decrease capital and operating expenditure for carriers. Huawei and its partners have released scale commercial use of services, such as voice call continuity (VCC), IP Centrex, and Blended Services. These services can help carriers accelerate their steps from the existing network to a FMC network smoothly and protect customers' investment efficiently.
