F5 Traffix™ Signaling Delivery
Controller™ honored for innovation and outstanding
performance
F5 Networks (NASDAQ: FFIV) has been recognized with Informa
Telecoms’ LTE North America Award for the Best LTE Roaming Product.
Winners were selected during the LTE North America Conference,
recently held in Dallas, Texas. The award program recognizes
LTE-related solutions, vendors, and carriers that are exceptional
in their area. Honorees are credited with making LTE more
attractive for operators to deploy, and contributing to the success
of commercial LTE deployments.
Sue Rudd, director of service provider analysis for Strategy
Analytics, Inc. and a judge for the LTE North America LTE roaming
award noted, “As LTE increases signaling traffic for roaming with
IPX and voice fallback to 3G networks, it is important for
operators’ signaling solutions to optimize integrated signaling and
routing control—as F5 emphasized in its presentation during
Signaling Day at the LTE conference, ‘When Flexibility in Routing
is Supreme.’ F5’s Traffix Signaling Delivery Controller offers an
integrated, scalable multiservice platform that is a powerful part
of its routing and control solution.”
The F5 Traffix Signaling Delivery Controller (SDC™) helps
overcome industry challenges around LTE deployments, specifically
the constant growth of smartphone use and the resulting need for
operators to manage the subsequent uncontrolled signaling between
network elements in order to maintain network performance.
The F5 Traffix SDC features a context-aware routing engine for
reliable signaling overload control and the network visibility
required for immediate identification and prevention of service
issues. It has been selected by more than 60 operators worldwide
for network signaling control and to achieve optimal network
performance and reliability.
“This is the second consecutive year that F5 has been recognized
by Informa with an LTE award—winning the ‘Best LTE Core Network
Element’ in 2013—reinforcing the success our Diameter solution is
seeing in the market,” said Mallik Tatipamula, vice president of
service provider solutions at F5. “When the F5 Traffix SDC is part
of an LTE roaming deployment, its Diameter Edge Agent (DEA) ensures
that all peer connections are secured and protected by normalizing
the flow of signaling messages, preventing failover or many other
situations that could negatively impact performance in either the
visited or home network. Continued industry recognition serves as a
proof point that the team’s efforts are paying dividends.”
