Benefits

The deployment of Squire Technologies products and utilisation of our specialist signalling services will deliver the following immediate benefits in a VoLTE network:

Optimal use of radio bandwidth delivering substantial cost savings
Voice quality assurance
Rapid support for multi vendor VoLTE handsets
Enable multi device, single number services
Enable Rich Communication Services RCS(e) to SMS inter-op
Enable seamless 4G to traditional VoIP / 2G / 3G / PSTN interconnect
Ongoing support for rollout of new and innovative VoLTE services

How?

At the signalling core of a VoLTE network is our SVI-SBC Session Border Controller product. The SVI-SBC is able to act as both a proxy and a B2BUA allowing it to dynamically manage signalling and media traffic that needs translating in the core of the network whilst proxying the remaining traffic. With half a decade of international carrier grade deployment the SVI-SBC can guarantee optimised signalling interconnect in a VoLTE network delivering:

Support for VoLTE Pre-Conditions
- Manage end-to-end bandwidth with support for VoLTE pre-conditions
- Insure Voice Quality
- Rapidly deploy new VoLTE handsets and manage interconnect issues from handset OS upgrades
Support for multi device, single number services
- Manage multiple subscriber registration for softphone app’s across multiple devices – tablets, laptops, mobiles
- Manage subscriber forking on calls across multiple devices on multiple networks
- Retain a single number per subscriber
Support for signalling and media inter-op with traditional VoIP devices and App enabled softphones
- SIP signalling inter-op and media transcoding between AMR, AMR-WB, Opus and G711, G729 and G723 *for full list of codec support please see here*

IP Short Message Gateway

At the heart of the problem is that 2G/3G networks are built upon legacy SS7 protocol technology, whereas 4G LTE networks are developed around the Diameter protocol.

What is required is a bridge between these technologies, one that will seamlessly allow the sharing of policy, charging and authentication information.

VoLTE Media Gateways

Squire Technologies carrier grade Media Gateways (SVI_MG) and Media Gateway Control Function (SVI_MGCF) provide a seamless breakout to the PSTN. Coupled with Squire Technologies specialist installation and commissioning services insures a comprehensive delivery of the VoLTE Breakout Gateway Control Function (BGCF).
