Specialized Mobile Networks

Tecore’s IP-based architecture and turnkey solution set – feature-rich yet flexible, modular yet scalable – can be adapted to a wide range of new network environments. In addition to the proven solutions described earlier, we continually address more specialized applications.

Lab Systems for Network Testing and Validation

Mobile operators, governments and integrators need to have systems that allow them to test their wireless networks in a lab environment. The systems need to support all of the latest commercial standard protocols and interoperability, but must also be compact, easy to install and configure, and cost-effective without sacrificing features and functionality. Tecore’s lab systems can be configured in a modular manner from our core and radio access network products to create the precise test bed required. These systems also have built-in interfaces for IN or IMS services that allow an operator or integrator to network test their application servers in a real network environment. The systems simplify the task of testing wireless elements, including radio access network products, mobile core network elements, and application servers before deploying new services or products in a live network. Tecore lab systems are available in a variety of hardware platforms, and feature a complete suite of management and administration functions.

Shipboard Networks

Marine industry demand for onboard cellular systems is booming. Tecore’s shipboard system offers ubiquitous cellular coverage on the entire vessel, including inside the crew’s and passengers’ cabins. Key attributes of the system are: complete, compact and cost-effective mobile network; TDM and IP network interfaces to enable satellite backhaul and localized switching for on-ship calls; capability to process multiple voice and data technologies including GSM, CDMA, 2.5/3G data and VoIP in multiple frequency bands, thus enabling use of existing subscriber devices; and integrated, value-added features to generate incremental revenue, such as Over-the-Air Prepaid Roaming to provide services directly to network visitors without the need for a roaming agreement.

Transportable Networks

Whether it’s the big game, a community event, or some other temporary gathering, the flexibility to augment network capabilities and provide increased capacity allows operators to adjust the network to the needs of their subscribers. Deployable capacity is a key to adapting a network to temporary changes in configuration. Tecore’s transportable solutions provide a self contained network that can be deployed and servicing customers in a matter of minutes supporting the full range of wireless service. Capable of operating in standalone fashion or integrated with permanently installed infrastructure, the deployment of the Tecore solution provides a transparent augmentation to the coverage and capacity of the network.
