Switch Cutover and SS7 Network Optimization

Telecom networks, whether wireline or wireless, are in a constant state of evolution and growth. This network churn presents the challenge for operators to efficiently introduce change into their network without disrupting services.

One option for operators to leverage IP network infrastructure and continue to preserve their capital investment in legacy equipment is to deploy new soft switches. This can create challenges to manage various equipment suppliers in one network.
 

SEGway™ Point Code Emulation™

Using Point Code Emulation™ (PCE), switches from multiple vendors may co-exist in a network under the same point code. This powerful capability allows operators to:

• Cap existing switch investment while expanding their network using IP-based switching gear.
• Transparently reconfigure or expand network capacity without creating churn in interconnectivity partners switch translations.
• Schedule cutover / turn up of trunks independent of interconnectivity partner’s availability.
• Transition switch and trunk migration in a controlled environment .
