Solutions : LTE / EPC
The next frontier of Mobile broadband is just ahead: Long Term Evolution (LTE) / Evolved Packet Core (EPC). Promising speeds beyond many fixed line service offerings, LTE / EPC represents a significant departure for mobile operator networks. For example, IP is the common end-to-end communications protocol, mobile network operators will have new security challenges, but should also have access to a wider range of suppliers from which to select the best solutions. The Stoke The Stoke Session eXchange with its programmable control plane and line rate packet processing capabilities was designed for the dimensions of scale required for LTE networks. Stoke is already helping NTT Docomo with its eNodeB deployments and backhaul strategy using Stoke's eNodeBs Aggregation application.
With Service eXchange for 3G networks, Stoke has proved that the gateway solutions made up of components of standard network nodes, but without carring the expense of the complete node functionality are a viable method for solving unforeseen problems. In Service eXchange's case, it tackles the unpredictable growth of 3G mobile data traffic with functions of a GGSN together with functions of a SGSN to redirect traffic around the mobile core to the Internet - at a fraction of the cost of the two standard devices. Stoke is applying this same Business-Crossovertm thinking to address emergine challenges of deploying scalable backward compatible LTE networks.
